Planning

Our Town Planning Service, incorporating planning and building control, aims to secure a high quality sustainable built and natural environment for residents, businesses and visitors to Tamworth - an environment that provides high quality housing, jobs, shopping and recreation amenities.

The service provides help and assistance to those wishing to develop in the Borough, whether the proposal is for a modest extension/alteration to a house or a large scale housing or industrial estate.
