IMPORTANT UPDATE: DOYLANDS FARM PLANNING APPLICATION – DOCUMENTS NOW AVAILABLE

Application Reference: 26/01173/FUL – Land North West of Doylands Farm

Chelmsford City Council has provided an alternative way for residents, Parish Councils and other interested parties to access the documents relating to this contentious planning application, following concerns about the Council’s notoriously slow and unreliable Planning Portal.

HOW TO ACCESS THE DOCUMENTS

The Council has created a separate link where the application documents can be viewed:

https://chelmsfordcity.sharepoint.com/:f:/r/sites/SustainableCommunities/DM/BigFile/Forms/AllItems.aspx?id=%2Fsites%2FSustainableCommunities%2FDM%2FBigFile%2FBigFile%2F26%2D01173%2DFUL&p=true&share=cgoZGkYK83itSbwiwd3TicXQEgUC%5FXENvXLPLnMY%5FhHTOU9%5FTA

You can also search for application 26/01173/FUL on the Chelmsford City Council Planning Portal and look for the Word document entitled “Application Documents Link to view documents”. This contains the alternative link.

IMPORTANT: THE DEADLINE FOR COMMENTS HAS BEEN EXTENDED

Chelmsford City Council has confirmed that the consultation period will run until 4 November 2026, allowing residents and other interested parties additional time to review the documents and submit their comments.

PLEASE MAKE YOUR VIEWS COUNT

Residents and Parish Councils need a fair and reasonable opportunity to examine planning applications and make informed representations. Access to the relevant documents is essential if people are to participate meaningfully in the planning process.

Please share this post so that as many people as possible know where to find the documents and have the opportunity to comment before the deadline.
