Seeking pre-application advice
If you are considering submitting a planning application for any development that might not be straightforward, perhaps because of its proximity to neighbours or its visual prominence in a sensitive area, it can make sense to seek advice from the Planning Service before finalising your proposals.
If you are seeking pre-application advice, please write including the following information:
- Your name, address and daytime contact details (telephone number and email address)
- Address of site (if different)
- Description of proposed renewable energy works
- Full dimensions
- A sketch location plan, showing the location of the proposed renewable energy device
- Include any brochure or weblink to details of the renewable energy device proposed.
- Identify any aspects of your proposal on which you would particularly value advice. State what constraints you are facing to make the renewable energy device effective and what you have done to minimise any possible harm to neighbours or the environment.
This is free advice. Send your enquiry to:
The Planning Service (Development Control),
Howden House,
1 Union Street,
Sheffield, S1 2SH
or by email to planningdc@sheffield.gov.uk Please allow two to three weeks for a reply.
