CONSULTATIONS over new planning policies are set to close in two weeks.

Sevenoaks District Council is allowing residents to comment on revised policies which could impact future planning applications.

Councillor Jill Davison, the council's cabinet member with responsibility for planning policy, said: "I would encourage local people to give us their views on any of the policies which are being considered and help influence the way planning applications will be determined in the future."

The policies can be viewed at sevenoaks.gov.uk/planning and are available for inspection at council offices and libraries.

The closing date for the consultations is August 4.
