Each month we summarise the Planning Applications submitted to and published by the Local Planning Authority which relate to properties (or trees, etc) in Milton. We do not seek to support or challenge any application with these posts, simply to make people aware of what is proposed in their area.
If you want more detail on any application or details of how to support or object to that application, go to the Portsmouth Planning Portal and search either on the application number (shown below at the end of each address) or the address itself.
