Commenting on applications (Advice from Haverings website):
You have three options;
1. Directly online (recommended)
The best way to comment on a planning application is by using the website. Simply use the Online Searches page to find the application you are interested in and, if the 21 day consultation period is still open, there will be a button at the top of the screen marked “submit a comment on this application”. Your comments will then be directly put into our system.
2. By email
You can email your views to us at planning@havering.gov.uk . Please quote the application number (in the format P0702.08) in the subject field and make it as clear to us as possible whether you are objecting, supporting or commenting on an application. You will be sent an acknowledgement of your email within a few minutes.
3. Write to us
You should post your comments to us as soon as possible. As with emailed comments (above) please always clearly quote the unique reference number (in the format P0702.08) and make it clear to us whether you are objecting, supporting or commenting on an application.Remember, comments must be recieved by 20th May. This is not the same as you having posted them to us. You should allow up to 5 days for a letter to arrive at our offices in Romford. You are already on the internet so why not save time and use our Online Searches facility which is linked directly to our system, meaning no postal delays and no stamps!

The following link may help you decide how you comment. This page describes the Governments “LDF” - Local Development Framework.
http://www.havering.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=2512
The policies and proposals in the LDF deal with a range of issues including:
- The number of houses needed and where they should be located
- How much land is needed for different employment uses, such as offices, business and warehouses
- The relationship between how people travel and the places they use most frequently
- Protecting areas of historic, archaeological, wildlife or scenic importance
- The provision of recreational facilities
- The Green Belt
- The location of shops, services and community facilities
- Balancing the above in the interests of sustainable development
