As part of the National Parks family we have a duty to protect the Broads while balancing its communities' needs.
Our Planning team plays a vital role in making sure any new development contributes to the quality of the natural environment and built heritage, as well as providing homes and work places to support the people who live here and sustain the local economy.
We guide you on what permission you might need, applying, appealing and how we make decisions.
