How to comment on a planning application in Northam

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

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

Torridge is the local planning authority responsible for deciding applications in Northam. 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.
