Wycombe District Council deals with thousands of planning applications every year.
They range from house owners wanting to build an extension to new homes, shops, businesses and even chopping down trees.
Here are four of the best projects announced from last week - the council will now consider whether each should go ahead.
1) Marlow Methodist Church, Spittal Street, Marlow: A proposal for the construction of front and rear extensions and associated alterations. The church was built in 1900 and has had a bits of work done since, such as the floor being replaced in 2007 as well as the pews being replaced and a new audio and visual system being installed.
