Planning Processing Agreement

We now offer the opportunity to applicants to enter into a Processing Agreement for all Major or National development proposals. Processing Agreements are a flexible tool that takes the format of an agreed framework for processing an application, ensuring that the planning process is project managed in a clear way.

Early contact with the planning authority is encouraged, especially before a Proposal of Application notice is submitted for a Major/National application. Use the form to contact the relevant Group Manager to discuss whether a processing agreement will be appropriate.

Please read the guidance note, which provides further information on Processing Agreements and the information required.

Flood Risk and Drainage Impact Assessments

Planning Guidance for Developers. This guidance is to assist developers and engineers to produce Flood Risk Assessments (FRAs) and Drainage Impact Assessments (DIA's).

Planning Officers should advise applicants in the planning process and building warrant process of the requirements to produce FRA's and DIA's in line with this guidance and to provide the necessary compliance and independent check certification.

 

Hillington Simplified Planning Zone

A Simplified Planning Zone is an area where the need to apply for planning permission for certain types of development is removed so long as the development complies with the details and guidance set out in the Scheme.

An SPZ Scheme deals with the planning issues 'up front' and confirms what type of development, and how much, is allowed.

There are currently no SPZ Schemes in Glasgow after the Hillington Park Simplified Planning Zone Scheme came to an end on the 1 October 2024.

Prior Notification and Prior Approval

Prior notification is a procedure where a developer must tell the planning authority about their proposals before taking advantage of permitted development rights. The result will be a decision that 'prior approval' is or is not needed.

If the decision is that approval is needed, the planning authority may ask for more information before they can decide whether to give prior approval.

If the planning authority decide to grant prior approval, they may set conditions or limitations that you will have to meet as well as any restrictions that apply to the development set out in the General Permitted Development Order (GDPO).

The "application for prior notification form" allows you to tell the planning authority about certain proposals which benefit from permitted development rights so they can decide whether you need to get approval beforehand (prior approval).

Please use the new Prior Notification and Prior Approval application in pdf format and follow the updated Guidance for making a Prior Notification and Prior Approval.  

Please complete this form and submit it directly to the Planning Authority. See the planning fees for the fee required and how to make payment for this service.

Please remember to include the Reference No: PRN (and quote the property address for the application), e.g., PRN231GeorgeSt, when making payment.

You will receive confirmation within 28 days advising that the request has been received and will be advised that either further information is required or that a case officer has been appointed and will contact you regarding the outcome.
