Planning Appraisals
Investing in an initial planning appraisal to assess whether a piece of land or building has potential for obtaining planning permission can save you time and money in the long run
Why you need a planning appaisal
Keeping up with planning rules and regulations is a time-consuming business so it’s a good idea to assess the feasibility of your project before committing to costly fees and plans.
Our team of expert planning consultants help organisations and individuals understand what’s possible with their land or property to get a good idea of potential success at an early stage. With our years of experience across many aspects of planning including residential, commercial and rural projects, we have the knowledge and understanding to minimise risk and maximise the potential of your plans being granted.
The CT Planning appraisal service works through a series of steps to identify possible constraints for the project enabling us to advise on the potential for planning permission being granted or for the inclusion of your site in a local development plan. By going through our appraisal process we can give guidance on an approach to mitigate any issues identified and increase the potential for a successful outcome.
What's involved in a planning appraisal?
Step #1 - Discovery Call
Step #2 - Research
Step #3 - The Site Visit
Step #4 - The Report
Types of planning appraisal
CT Planning offer a desk-based appraisal or a site visit appraisal. Our desk-based service will give you a good overview of what’s possible for your site covering relevant policy and high-level constraints.
We advise including a site visit as part of your appraisal because the opportunity to explore the site in person can reveal constraints that a desk-based appraisal would not flag. A site visit can also allow our planners to identify opportunities for your site that would otherwise be unseen.
Both our desk-based and site visit planning appraisals will provide you with actionable insights for your project.
OUR PROMISE:
If we identify problems that are likely to lead to planning permission being rejected we will tell you before you make costly commitments.
