Since November 2025: 1 planning application. Each dot is one of them, in the month it happened. Our planning records start in April 2026 and our council papers in September 2025, and street problems show only while they are open, so earlier months may look quieter than they really were.

Closing dates you can still act on, applications and decisions on the street, appeals, the protections that cover it, and the council's land and licensing papers.
