Applying for Planning Permission (Step by Step)

Pre-Planning Meetings
Before you submit a Planning Application you may wish to arrange a pre-planning meeting with the Area Planner to discuss your proposal. It is a good idea to do so, particularly when you are unsure of local planning policies or if your proposal is complex. However, there is no obligation for you to do so.

Carlow County Council offer an Online Pre-Planning Enquiry System. This facility is free of charge and generates a report for your proposed site boundary in Co. Carlow. The resulting information can assist with the preparation of a planning application, along with deciding on whether a Pre-Planning Meeting may be required.
Guide to the Planning Process
The Office of the Planning Regulator and the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage have published a series of planning leaflets dealing with all aspects of the planning system. These leaflets cover a wide range of issues including how to prepare and lodge a planning application, how to make a planning appeal, requirements for change of use, building extensions, garages, domestic sheds, agricultural development, etc. The leaflets are available free of charge hereunder and from your local planning authority.
