Colehill Planning Portal: Applying for Planning Permission

If you’re planning a development in the Colehill area, your first stop will be the Colehill planning portal. This online system, managed by the local authority, is where you can put together and submit your planning applications, upload drawings or reports, and check on the progress of your case.

It’s also more than just a tool for applications. Through the Colehill planning portal, local residents can look at the current proposals in their area and share their feedback during consultation periods. This makes the whole process more open and helps ensure that planning permission decisions reflect the needs and opinions of the community.

At Collington Winter Environmental, we help applicants meet the ecological requirements when using the Colehill planning portal. Our services include:

• Preliminary Ecological Appraisals (PEA): Early assessments to highlight any habitats or species that need consideration.
• Protected Species Surveys: Targeted surveys for wildlife such as bats, badgers, and nesting birds, along with advice on mitigation and licensing.
• Tree Surveys and Root Protection Plans: Making sure trees are assessed properly and factored into your site design.
• Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG): Calculations to demonstrate how your project meets the 10% uplift in biodiversity required under the Environment Act 2021.
• Ecological Clerk of Works: On-site support during construction to ensure agreed ecological measures are followed.

If you’re preparing to use the Colehill planning portal, our team is here to make the process smoother. We’ll help you understand what surveys are needed, prepare the right reports, and guide you from the very first stages through to planning permission.
