Planning application forms

Making a Planning Application

We recommend you submit your planning application to us electronically, via the Planning Portal. This can be done by clicking here.

The Planning Portal site allows you to complete an on-line application form, buy site location plans, attach drawings and make your application electronically.  You can also purchase site location plans direct from us .

Alternatively you can email the forms and supporting information through to us via planning@fylde.gov.uk  or you can submit your planning applications through the post or deliver them to the council direct. Before you do so, why not take a look at the benefits of applying online? If you wish to submit your application using the traditional method we will require two copies of all documentation. All plans for the submission for planning permission should be drawn to an appropriate metric scale, block plans of a scale not less than 1:1250 should also be included.

Whilst the council can provide guidance to help you submit your planning application, you may wish to employ your own planning agent to submit an application on your behalf. Details of professionals who maybe able to help you submit your application are available here.

If you are unsure if planning is required, please visit our “Do I need Planning Permission” dedicated help section.
