Planning
The Minister for the Environment decides on planning appeals. An independent Inspector reviews the case and gives a recommendation to the Minister. The Minister can choose not to follow the Inspector’s recommendation but must explain the reason why. The Planning Tribunal within the Judicial Greffe manages the administration of the appeal process.
The Inspector will consider:
- Material submitted during the planning application
- All appeal documents
- Relevant laws and policies
- Other matters important to the appeal
All submissions during the appeal process are published on the planning register at www.gov.je. The Minister’s Decision on the appeal and the Inspector’s report will also be published here.
It is for the parties to monitor the planning register for updates during the appeal process.
- A person refused planning permission or building bye-laws
- A 3rd party who is unhappy with a particular grant of planning permission and who has made a written representation in connection with that application for permission and who has an interest in the affected land or lives within 50m of the application site.
- A person refused to have a condition on an approval varied or removed
- A person who does not agree that a condition attached to a permission is appropriate
- A person who has had their property made a Listed Building or has had an application to de-List the building refused
- A person refused permission to import a caravan
- A person refused permission to carry out work to/on/under a site of special interest (a Listed Building or place)
- A person refused permission to carry out works to a protected tree
- A person served a notice as per Article 109 of Planning and Building (Jersey) Law 2002
If you want to appeal more than one decision, you must submit a separate appeal form for each decision you want to appeal.
