Full Planning Applications

Overview

A full planning application is required where permitted development rights do not apply or where a proposal raises material planning considerations that must be assessed by the Local Planning Authority.We manage and support full planning applications across a range of development types, including residential development, HMOs, change of use, and extensions.Our role is to ensure that proposals are supported by a clear planning strategy, robust policy justification, and proportionate technical information to maximise the likelihood of approval.

• Planning strategy and application route advice
• Review of drawings and proposals
• Identification of planning constraints and risks
• Coordination of supporting information
• Submission and management of the application
• Liaison with the Local Planning Authority

This service is appropriate for development within Article 4 areas, proposals that require planning permission by definition, schemes refused under permitted development, and complex or policy-sensitive developments.We provide realistic advice throughout the process and will advise where revisions or alternative approaches are more likely to achieve a positive outcome.

We also manage communication with the local planning authority during the determination period, responding to queries and providing additional information where required.
