Current Planning Applications

A number of BRA Members have said that it would be very helpful to be able to quickly see any Planning applications that are being progressed via North Somerset Council Planning applications and to be able at times to look back at previous applications.

The details are held on line by North Somerset Council and to access the current and past Planning Applications linked to the BS48 postcode area please use this link – Planning Applications
