Planning Appeals
A Refusal Doesn’t Mean the End
A planning refusal can be frustrating—but it doesn’t have to mean the end of your project. Local planning authorities don’t always get it right, and when they don’t, that’s where Coast to Country’s planning appeal expertise can make the difference.
Our team of experienced planning consultants has a deep understanding of the planning system and the appeals process. We closely monitor policy changes and appeal decisions to ensure your case is built on the most current and relevant information available. With Coast to Country, you can be confident that every detail is covered to give your appeal the best possible chance of success.
Common Types of Planning Appeals We Handle
Refused Planning Permission
If your planning application has been refused, we will undertake a detailed analysis of the decision notice, planning policy context, and site circumstances. We’ll then develop a tailored appeal strategy designed to address the reasons for refusal and demonstrate why the decision should be overturned.
Enforcement Notices
If you’ve received an enforcement notice for alleged breaches of planning control, it’s essential to act quickly. Our team can assess the grounds for appeal, help you compile the necessary evidence, and guide you through the process of contesting the notice or negotiating a resolution that protects your interests.
Appeals Against Conditions
Sometimes, planning permission is granted but with conditions that are unreasonable, overly restrictive, or impractical. We can help you appeal against such conditions or apply to have them varied or removed, ensuring your project can proceed without unnecessary limitations
