Alan Millington - Borough
Planning Officer
Welcome to the
Planning pages of the Crewe and Nantwich Borough Council web
site.
The Council has
implemented a new computer system which is being upgraded over
6 days commencing on Wednesday 9th July 2008 through to
midday on Tuesday 15th July
2008. During this time there will be limited
access to systems to allow data transfer to be
completed. Access to Planning Explorer and
Applications OnLIne may not be available for this
period. We apologise in advance
for any inconvenience and will endeavour to make the system
available again as soon as possible.
Validation checklists
The Borough Council had adopted Local Validation Checklists
for planning applications. Local
Validation Checklists will be used in association with
national requirements to assess whether a planning application is
valid, i.e. all the necessary information relating to the type
of development proposed has been submitted, thus enabling the
Local Planning Authority to make an informed
decision.

proposing a new development can judge whether or not their proposal
will be acceptable.
