Make an online planning application
Alternatively you can download application forms to apply in person or by post.
Wherever possible, please pay online using a debit or credit card. You will need to quote your reference number. If this is not available quote "postal/email application".
Note: this form is not required if using the planning portal, as payment is taken when using that service. This form is only for applications emailed to development.management@southnorthants.gov.uk.
