How ET Planning Can Help.
Site Appraisal Services
Prior to making the commitment to prepare and submit a planning application we recommend our Planning Appraisal service. These Appraisals are designed to support experienced developers to homeowners with no prior experience. If you have applied for planning permission and received a refusal notice, we can undertake a review of the Council’s justification for its refusal reasons.
Planning Applications
Preparation and co-ordination of the submission of planning applications and we can negotiate on your behalf with the Local Planning Authority. ET Planning has comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the planning policies, and we can support you through the full process for developments of all scales. This service also encompasses Certificate of Lawfulness & Prior Approval submissions if suitable to your development proposal.
Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)
We have extensive knowledge and experience in submitting Regulation 114 CIL Appeals to challenge the chargeable amounts in Liability Notices, as well as successfully decreasing Demand Notice Surcharges at Regulation 117 Appeals. We provide strategic support and advice on how to mitigate excessive charges or provide advice to minimise the amount of CIL you pay.
Land Promotion
We support and advise house builders, developers, institutions, and private individuals through the complex land promotion process, providing strategic advice of the plan making system. We can create an Estate Development Strategy, to deliver a series of smaller developments over a short timeframe to help release cash profits out of the land asset , this enables the funding of the land promotion program.
Planning Appeals
We have the specialist knowledge and expertise to make a strong and robust appeal against refusals of planning permission or unreasonable conditions. We also provide specialist services for Enforcement Appeals and challenges to CIL Liability Notices. ET Planning can support you through the appeal process and provide viable advice on the options available to you.
Viability Assessment
An affordable housing viability assessment is an appraisal of the costs, values and profitability anticipated with delivering a proposed development. We can carry out cost effective initial high level viability appraisals, at design concept or pre-planning stage to assess the optimum amount and type of development which should be proposed to result in more profit in your pocket.
