Recent Planning Applications

Recent planning applications are listed below, the most recent first, by ‘Comments welcome by’ date. Wembdon Parish Council examines all new planning applications, and in most cases the application is discussed at a Parish Council Meeting.

The Parish Council could decide to support, object to, or just not to comment on the application. Somerset Council will take a Parish Council’s views into consideration when determining an application, but it’s Somerset who make the final decision. If Somerset Council’s Planning Officer and the Parish Council have different views on an application, it can be referred to the Somerset’s Development Committee (North) by one of our Somerset County Councillors for a decision.

Note: Certain categories of application, for example ‘Notice of Proposed Agricultural Devt.’ do not require consultation, so have no ‘Comments welcome by’ date. These can be found at the end of the list.

All recent and archived applications can currently be found on Somerset Council’s planning archive. Each application listed below includes a link to the full application details.

Hints: choose Wembdon from the list of parishes on the search page of the planning archive, and enter the address or postcode; or enter 51 and a two-digit year as the prefixes when browsing for applications using the Application Number Search.
