Check and report a planning breach

If you think there has been a possible breach of planning rules you must first check whether your concern counts as a valid breach.

Examples of planning breaches include:

• an unauthorised change of use
• a development without planning permission
• a development not built to agreed permission or in breach of planning conditions

If your concern covers a number of different breaches you will need to check and report them separately.

You can check about a possible breach without giving specific details or personal information. You will only need to provide these if you decide to report it.

Alternatively you can email planningenforcement@southglos.gov.uk. Make sure you include your name, phone number, email, home address, the nature of your concern and the location of the site you are concerned about.
