View or comment on a planning application

You can search for planning applications and supporting documents on our Fastweb planning system. Turn off any pop-up blockers before you use this.

You can search using the:

  • planning application reference (e.g. RB2021/1492)
  • address details
  • navigation icons above the map

Planning decision notices are also available on the internet.

Use one of the following links, replacing the number with the reference of the decision notice you need.

For notices since 2011

Example:

http://rotherham.planportal.co.uk/?id=RB2015/0123

Change the number at the end to suit, you must use a / to separate the year from the application number.

For notices before 2011

Example:

http://planning.rotherham.gov.uk/pdf/planningpdf/XRB2010-1234.pdf

Make sure the reference is in the same format. For example, it has ‘X’ before the RB number and ‘.pdf’ on the end. There is also a – rather than a / between the date and application number.

We can email decision notices through, but, there is now a charge for this service.
