Biodiversity Net Gain

From Monday 12 February 2024 all major applications must be accompanied by a Biodiversity Net Gain Assessment via the latest version of the DEFRA Biodiversity Metric spreadsheet. This must be supplied to make a valid submission.

The Outline and Full application validation checklists have been updated to reflect this.

Planning Application Amendments

In order to ensure timely decision-making for all our applicants, the planning department (Development Services) will not accept amendments to planning applications.  Once a planning application is made valid it will be publicly available on our Public Access webpages with full details of expected timescales for determination, within statutory timescales.

Please continue to monitor the Public Access webpages for updates including consultee responses to a planning application.

Consultation: Planning Checklists

We are seeking comments on amendments to our planning validation checklists. To find out more and how to provide feedback please visit the consultation page.

We have a number of guidance notes and document checklists to help you when submitting different types of planning applications within Huntingdonshire. These documents provide information on the national and local requirements for each type of application.

Application forms are available on the Planning Portal and you can submit your application online
