Planning Appeals, Enforcement & Objection

All planning applications undergo a consultation process, allowing interested parties to provide feedback on the proposed development. Upon receiving notification that an adjoining landowner intends to develop, it's natural to feel concerned and seek assurance that you won't be negatively impacted.

Should you wish to raise objections to an application, our experienced team can assess the planning proposal to determine whether there are valid grounds for objection. If valid grounds are identified, we can submit a statement of objection on your behalf. This may focus on specific impacts on your amenity or others', and highlight where the scheme fails to comply with planning policies or requirements. Additionally, it may address factual errors within the application or identify deficiencies in supporting information that could hinder the council's ability to make an informed decision on the scheme's impacts.

With significant experience in lodging objections across various types and scales of applications, we handle proposals that may pose potential harm to sensitive and protected sites, such as Conservation Areas, Listed Buildings, and areas of landscape significance, such as National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Our track record speaks for itself, whether resulting in a council refusal of permission, amendments to the scheme to address objections and gain client approval, or the imposition of planning conditions to shape or restrict development.
