• Applicant applies to East Riding Of Yorkshire Council (ERYC) for planning permission if needed.
• ERYC refers the application to the Parish Council and other statutory bodies for comment, and residents who may be directly affected (such as residing next door) will be sent a letter telling them how to find out details of the application.
• The Parish Council does not take the final decision but can recommend approval or refusal, taking into account views of residents who can attend Parish Council meetings to state their views. The final decision does not always follow the Parish Council’s recommendations.
• The application can either be decided by officers under delegated powers or it can go to the Western Area Planning Committee for a decision, taking into account the Parish Council's and Resident's views who may be allowed to attend committee meetings.
• An appeal by the applicant against an ERYC decision can be made to the Planning Inspectorate at Bristol who will give a final decision. This can only be challenged in the High Court.
