Pre Application Enquiries

A key element in achieving planning permission is establishing early contact with the Local Planning Authority. John Howlett Planning will represent the client and ensure that the pre application enquiry is presented professionally so that the Authority fully understands and appreciates the proposal before them.

All those involved in the process should be prepared to invest effort in discussions and the provision of information prior to submission of a planning application. Spending time on exchanging information during this period, where a development proposal is still fluid and capable of adaptation, can improve development, and reduce time and money spent on abortive work.
