Find out what planning application advice our Planning Team can give residents.
Our experienced Planning Team can give professional advice on your application with us before you make your submission.
Pre-application advice usually results in the submission of high-quality applications which progress through the planning process more smoothly, leading to quicker decisions and therefore saving you time and money.
Pre-application advice can also help identify any significant constraints and whether/how these can be resolved. If you are planning a non-traditional design or build, or your property is in or near a Conservation Area, early expert advice can be especially important.
We'll offer informal comments on your project without prejudice.
The pre-application service is subject to a fee proportionate to the development proposed and the level of service offered.
