Finding the case officer for your planning application
How to find out which case officer is handling your application and how you can contact them.
How to use the planning register
You can find the name of the case officer dealing with each application on the Planning register.
First, search for your application. Once you find it, select it from the search results and you should see a table of information.
How to contact a case officer
All of our case officers mainly work from home. Some work part-time with variable daily work patterns. The easiest way to contact them is by direct email and they will respond within 3 working days (depending on their work pattern).
They can also be contacted by phone every day between 9:30am and 3:30pm.
They may be in meetings when you call. If so, leave a voicemail message and they will return your call within 5 working days (depending on their working pattern).
Use the list below to find and contact your assigned case officer. Case officers can only discuss a case they are assigned to and are not able to help with general enquiries.
If you have a general enquiry or have contacted your assigned case officer but haven't received a response within 5 working days, send an email to planning.applications@brighton-hove.gov.uk. We'll get back to you as soon as possible.
If you do not have access to the internet, phone 01273 292 222 between 9:30am and 1:30pm weekdays for help.
