You can make a request relating to any ‘environmental information’ that the council holds, and which isn’t related to personal or non-environmental data. This could relate to:
- land development
- planning
- highways
- pollution levels
- energy production
- trees and conservation
- housing
- waste management
It is worth checking our website to see if the information you have requested has not already been published by us already.
Make a request for information
Your request should describe the information you need and any time periods or departments it may relate to. Check the ICO guidance on 'What makes a valid request'.
This will help our officers to find the information quickly.
The Information Commissioners Office (ICO) gives guidance on how to access information from a public body.
