Planning and Building Control

                                                                     You can search for planning applications online

Our Planning Team have recently migrated over to a new software system, which means that our online search and commenting functions have also changed.  Applications can now be retrieved using a shortened reference number format i.e. 0001/25.  Our teams have worked extremely hard to ensure a smooth transition throughout the system change. However, if you experience difficulties in accessing information or making comments within the required timescales, please contact the team, who will be more than happy to assist; email - Development.Control@e-lindsey.gov.uk

Please note we have moved to a new software system from Monday 24th March 2025.  Therefore you will now need to re-register in order to make comments on applications.

You will also need to re-register in order to track applications.

Consultees, including parish and town councils, will also need to register as a consultee.

Once you have registered please confirm your registration by emailing Development.Control@e-lindsey.gov.uk

If you are experiencing difficulties viewing applications, please bear with us as we are currently uploading a months worths of new applications onto our new software system. You are advised to check again in a few days. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience.
