Have your say on Tamworth Borough Council’s draft validation checklist for planning applications.
Our validation checklist is to be used by those who want to submit a planning application. All items need to be submitted before we can carry out any work as the planning authority.
This was a six-week consultation, please share your views by 20 September 2022.
Background
When submitting a planning application, you must submit relevant plans and drawings to make sure that all those with an interest in your proposal know exactly what you are applying for. Anyone can comment on a planning application, so range from those who have experience in planning such as officers to those with none such as your neighbour so this information must be as clear as possible.
The minimum requirements for planning applications are set nationally. However, these basic guidelines do not set out clearly all the other documentation that will be required to fully assess proposals.
This can lead to delays if we have to ask for further documentation and application details after the validation stage when the publicity, and consultation and assessment period has begun.
To help with this, in common with many other local authorities, Tamworth Borough Council has had its current validation list since June 2017. This is a checklist of documents that need to be submitted prior to a planning application being validated.
It is now time to review our existing checklist.
It has been designed to help developers when preparing applications for planning permission and other planning consents, by providing clear information as to what should be submitted with each application type.
We also provide a table to use for each different application type and the document/plans required.

Talk to us Tamworth – Residents Survey
Earlier this year we carried out a Residents Survey in an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of people’s views of Tamworth as place to live and the work of the council.
The ‘Talk To Us Tamworth’ campaign was designed to find out more about how people want to engage with the council, what sort of things they would like to be kept informed about and how they prefer to receive that information.
The headline results are now available, and these can be viewed on our Talk to Us Tamworth webpage.

Tamworth, what's next?
We have to establish a new vision for Tamworth town centre, to identify viable uses that people want and that the market can support. We need to define what Tamworth town centre should offer to ensure it is thriving, successful and a place that people want to visit. It could be that the town should include more housing, more leisure, a greater variety of food and drink and more artisan retailers, for example.
So this is why we are asking 'What's Next for Tamworth?' We need your input. Whether you're a resident, visitor or business, we want to hear your ideas for the regeneration of Tamworth town centre so that we can start a positive debate that will hopefully lead to a busy and vibrant town for all to enjoy.

Consultation for the Review of our Statement of Licensing Policy and Cumulative Impact Assessment - CLOSED
Tamworth Borough Council is required to produce a Statement of Licensing Policy under Section 5 of the Licensing Act 2003. The policy states how the council as the licensing authority will exercise its licensing functions in order to promote the four licensing objectives:
a. The prevention of crime and disorder
b. The prevention of public nuisance
c. Public safety and
d. The protection of children from harm
The aim of the licensing policy is to ensure premises that will extend the diversity of entertainment and attract a wide range of participants are encouraged, rather than premises mainly or exclusively focused on the sale of alcohol.
The council believes that achieving this will promote the licensing objectives as well as support the Tamworth’s vision of putting its people and the local economy at the heart of everything we do.
The council is required to carry out a review of its Statement of Licensing Policy every five years.
Our current statement was adopted in 2014 and we are now inviting your comments as part of a wider consultation before an updated Statement is adopted in December 2019.
The proposed changes to the current policy are in red text in the draft consultation document.
We are also consulting on a draft Cumulative Impact Assessment (CIA) in respect of the town centre area. The CIA can be found at Appendix 3 of the draft Statement of Licensing Policy.
We are undertaking a twelve-week public consultation on the review of the policy and the CIA which took place between 21 June 2019 and 21 September 2019.

Copies of the questionnaire have been delivered to housing register applicants along with the summary of the policy, but as an alternative you can fill in the questionnaire online here and download a policy summary pdf at this link. There is also a full copy of the proposed policy linked here.
This policy has been reviewed to meet the following principles and key objectives:
- To take account of the new duties to homeless households brought in by the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017
- To operate an allocations system that offers realistic, informed choice for all
- To ensure that every application is dealt with fairly and consistently irrespective of race, disability, gender, sexual orientation, religion, belief and age
- To give appropriate priority to customers who fall within the Housing Act 1996 ‘reasonable preference’ categories and
- To make the best use of resources available
The new policy will come in to effect in winter 2019. A planned programme of consultation and information sharing will now begin with all applicants on the housing register, existing tenants and other external agencies about how the scheme will work, as well as the launch date and how we will transfer applications to the new way of working.

It was therefore decided that the document, although only recently adopted, should be amended to ensure it remains up to date.
We are therefore sought your views on the revisions to the SPD. As the document has only recently been consulted on and adopted, we are only sought comments on the sections of the document affected by the recent publication of the revised NPPF. These were:

- The ‘Affordable housing’ section starting on page 7.

Final consultation on review of parliamentary constituency boundaries - THIS CONSULTATION IS NOW CLOSED.
In 2016 the Boundary Commissions began a review of parliamentary constituency areas as part of a remit from Government to reduce the number of MPs across the UK from 650 to 600. This means the number of constituencies in England will be reduced by 32, from 533 to 501.
The Boundary Commission for England first published its proposals for how parliamentary boundaries could change in September 2016, which was followed by an in-depth consultation period with two phases. In Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent, it is proposed that the number of constituencies will reduce from 12 to 11.
Changes have been suggested to the existing Tamworth and Lichfield constituencies to realign ward and constituency boundaries following changes to ward boundaries in Lichfield and to increase the overall size of the Tamworth electorate.
Currently the two wards of Hammerwich with Wall and Whittington & Streethay are split between Lichfield and Tamworth, but with most of the electorate in Lichfield. The proposals are to include the Whittington & Streethay ward wholly in the Tamworth constituency and to include the Hammerwich with Wall ward wholly in the Lichfield constituency. In essence this means Tamworth would lose a small section of the Hammerwich with Wall ward, while gaining electors overall from the Whittington & Streethay ward.
Members of the public were being encouraged to view and comment on the proposals which were detailed in full online including maps of the existing and proposed constituency boundaries. Paper copies of the plans and associated documents were also available to view in the reception of Tamworth Borough Council at Marmion House in Lichfield Street.
