Planning Appraisals
Are you a homeowner who is considering some development and want to know what sort of planning permission might be required? Or do you have a site and are considering what development options you have? The Planning Process can be a complicated, and the rules can vary from place to place. There are a number of considerations which might arise and so getting some professional planning advice can make the difference in getting a successful planning decision.
​
The first step for many homeowners and developers considering a development can be a Planning Appraisal. An appraisal will investigate a site and considered development to see what the chances of success with a planning application may be and the best strategy with which to proceed. It will also seek to ascertain what reports will likely be required to accompany a planning application in order to be validated by the Local Planning Authority.
If you are considering obtaining a Planning Appraisal, there are three primary pieces of information we will need:
-
Where – the Site Address,
-
What – what is the proposed development to be considered within the appraisal, and
-
Who – your information, including name, email and address (if different from the site).
