Planning Information

How the Planning System Works

Applicant applies to East Riding Of Yorkshire Council (ERYC) for planning permission if needed.
ERYC will forward the application to the Parish Council, as a Consultee,  for comments.
The Parish Council does not make the final decision but can either approve or recommend refusal, taking into account views of residents who can attend Parish Council meetings to state their views. In many cases the Parish Council may well sympathise with residents views but the final decision does not always follow their recommendations.
The application then goes to ERYC (Western Planning Committee) for a decision, taking into account the Parish Council's and resident's views who may be allowed to attend committee meetings and are also able to make their comments known on the ERYC Planning public portal (public access page).
An appeal against a ERYC decision can be made to the Planning Inspectorate at Bristol who will give a final decision. This can only be challenged in the High Court.
 To view Welton, Melton & Wauldby Planning Applications visit the East Riding Planning Public Access Page and select Welton Parish Council in the 'Parish' box, select some date ranges in the 'Date Application Received' or 'Date Application Validated' boxes then click the 'Search' button. From the list of applications displayed click on the 'Click to view' button of the one you require.
If you have the reference number (available from the Clerk and published in Council Minutes) you can view a planning application via the East Riding Planning Public Access page by entering the Application Reference then click the 'Search' button.
Applications can also be viewed at ERYC Customer Service Centres in Anlaby & Hessle. Residents can contact or address the Parish Council or send comments direct to the appropriate Case Officer at Planning & Development Control, County Hall, Beverley, HU17 9BA, quoting the reference number. Whilst unable to express an opinion publicly, your East Riding of Yorkshire Ward Councillors will also listen to applicants and objectors comments on planning applications. Contact Cllr Margaret Corless or Cllr Paul Hopton.
