Development Management Committee

The Development Management Committee usually meets on the first Wednesday of every month to consider planning applications that are not decided by officers under delegated powers.

The applications considered normally consist of more complex, sensitive and larger scale planning matters that affect Mole Valley.

Meetings are held in the Council Chamber at our Pippbrook Offices in Dorking and commence at 7pm.

Members of the public interested in attending can access the building via the Reigate Road entrance, opposite Dorking Sports Centre.
