If you need planning consent and you weren't one of the 50+ people who attended our seminar on Saturday about getting planning consent, then you may be interested in the key takeaways. These were:
• Do your research You need to know the planning policies that apply to your site (including national, local authority and neighbourhood policies) and the people who will influence the decision to grant or refuse your application.
• Engage with the right people
This needs to be done much earlier than you may think. The important thing is to not let the key decision-makers and influencers find out about your proposals from someone else. Get to them early and your chances of winning their support are greater.
None of this is easy, so feel free to contact us to see if we can help you.
