Planning Applications

Planning applications relating to the Parish are considered at each meeting of the Parish Council and, where appropriate, comments are submitted to St Albans City & District Council, our Local Planning Authority (LPA).

The table below details all the planning applications for the Harpenden Rural Parish area which were either received by, or had decisions made by, the LPA since 1st January 2022. We aim to build a database of earlier cases to display in due course; in the meantime please use the search facility at the St Albans Planning Portal here.

If you want to search for any other applications within the LPA boundary, you can access the St Albans Planning Portal here. –

Table Notes

  • Data last checked: 29th April 2023
  • The pending (decision awaited) cases are generally shown first, and are then listed in Reference number order (= date order).
  • Each entry in the Reference column links directly to the St Albans City & District Council’s detailed record for that application, where you can see associated documents and any comments which have been made on the application.
  • Some details under Application are limited due to restrictions on the number of characters allowed in the St Albans Planning Department’s website interface. The details shown usually provide a sufficient summary of the proposed application, but if more information is needed then please use the link under Reference to look at the documents submitted for that application.
