Minerals, waste and county council planning applications
Due to council offices and County Hall being closed, paper copies of planning applications cannot be viewed at this time. This is reflected in our updated Statement of Community Involvement.
We ask that you submit your planning applications using the online planning portal. Or, by emailing mineralsandwasteDM@essex.gov.uk.
Payments should be made using our Minerals and Waste Payments online form.
