Our team understands the specific requirements for different types of developments and works to make sure your submission meets the criteria set by local planning authorities.

   
   

2. Design and Access Statements:

   As part of your planning application, we craft detailed design and access statements that explain the rationale behind your development’s design, layout, and accessibility. This is a critical component of any successful application, providing a clear justification for how the proposed development meets planning policies and promotes inclusivity.

   
   

3. Viability Assessments:

   Our team conducts thorough viability assessments to determine whether your project is financially sustainable. These assessments are essential when negotiating with planning authorities, particularly for developments involving affordable housing or complex land use.

6. Site Assessments & Feasibility Studies:

   Before submitting your planning application, we conduct site assessments and feasibility studies to ensure the proposed development is suitable for the location. These assessments evaluate environmental, logistical, and legal factors that could impact the success of your project.

   
   

What is a Design and Access Statement?

A design and access statement is a vital part of your planning application that outlines the principles behind your project’s design and its impact on accessibility. It explains how the design relates to the site, surrounding environment, and any planning constraints. Our team ensures your design and access statement complies with legal requirements and enhances the chances of a successful application.

Viability Assessments for Planning Applications

A viability assessment helps demonstrate that your development is financially viable. This is particularly important when your project involves affordable housing or is located in an area with specific financial obligations, such as Section 106 agreements or Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) requirements. We offer detailed viability assessments that consider all economic factors, helping you negotiate with local authorities and secure planning approval.

We understand the additional layers of scrutiny these applications face and provide strategic advice to ensure your project complies with all relevant regulations.
