  • If you wish to object you will need to draft a letter of objection to the ‘Planning Officer in Charge’: Case Officer Liz Beighton
  • IMPORTANT: Your letter of objection – this needs to be drafted correctly and must relate to Local Plan /Core Strategy & Development Management Policies: PDF Document.
  • There are many resources online if you search ‘how to object to a planning application’

Finding Out More

When Suffolk Coast District Council receives a planning application they should notify any neighbours that may be affected by it, but this will depend on the local planning officer(s) – not everyone will recieve a letter. You can object to any planning application, whether or not you have received a letter informing you of the planning application. In any event a notice will be placed outside the exsiting SCDC Melton Hill Offices Site – this will typically be a white or colour A4 notice stapled to a post.
