Hot weather

The Met Office (opens new window) has forecast hot weather across Guildford. Read our advice during hot weather.

Bin collections

Due to the high temperatures, our bin crews will be starting collections earlier than usual to help keep them safe in the heat. Please make sure your bins are out the night before, as collections will take place from 5.30am for the rest of the week. Thank you for helping our crews work safely during the hot weather.

I want to see a copy of a planning document that isn't on your website

The FOIA and EIR recommend a policy of 'disclosure', in other words if you wish to see a document then you should be able to, as long as giving that information does not break any of the rules in the GPDR.

We will not be able to supply any documents containing sensitive or confidential information. This might include documents containing email addresses and telephone numbers, locations of rare species of wildlife, or information that an applicant has told us is commercially sensitive. Examples of sensitive documents are some viability assessments, documents containing financial information or medical information. Any documents we do supply will have personal details redacted.

Building Control documents are not public information and are not sent out to anyone other than the applicant or agent.
