How to comment on a planning application in Barnsley

Anyone can have their say on a planning application in Barnsley.

Comments are usually limited to planning matters such as overlooking, loss of light, traffic, noise and the character of the area.

Barnsley is the local planning authority responsible for deciding these applications. Town Crier mirrors the public record so you can keep track of what is happening near you, but the council remains the authoritative source and the place to submit formal comments.
