Please note that the Public Access viewing tool does not allow application records to be accessed outside of the EU for cyber security reasons.

Using the search button below, once you have typed in a keyword, reference number or postcode and clicked search if you wish to view the documents/plans submitted with the application you will need to click 'plans and related documents' followed by 'View associated documents'.

Then to look at the plans/documents, use the filter box in the top right hand corner by typing in the word 'plan'. You can also search for consultee comments and neighbour comments using keywords such as 'consultee' or 'neighbour'.

  • planning applications including forms, plans and supporting documents
  • officer reports
  • decision notices
  • Section 106 agreements and scoping documents (if applicable)

View public comments received on applications received and registered from 2017 onwards can be viewed online.

If you have difficulty viewing any of the plans online, you can come into the council offices to view them. For proposals outside of the Basingstoke Town area, the relevant town or parish council may have copies of planning applications. Find details of the relevant Find details of the relevant Town or Parish Clerk.

Before publishing applications and supporting documents on our website, we have taken reasonable steps to remove the following:

  • personal telephone numbers
  • personal email addresses
  • signatures.

Planning applications have been edited in this way since 1 August 2008, however, documents published before this date may not have been. If you would like your personal details removed from documents published before this date, please contact us.
