DrawingWhat a householder application usually needs
A typical householder planning application is supported by existing and proposed plans and elevations, a location plan and a site plan. Some proposals also need a design and access statement, particularly in sensitive locations.
Wirral Council, like all local planning authorities, validates the application against its requirements before assessing it. Well-prepared drawings reduce the risk of delays at validation.
