Planning

As the requirements of the planning system become increasingly complex and involved, it is important to obtain advice at an early stage. The JTS Partnership has a number of planning professionals who provide advice about:

  • the need to obtain planning permission
  • planning appraisals
  • planning applications
  • design and access statements
  • sequential assessments
  • environmental impact assessments
  • representations to emerging local development framework documents
  • planning enforcement
  • certificates of lawfulness
  • advertisement applications
  • submission of appeals
  • preparation of appeal evidence
  • expert witness evidence

With central government in the process of making radical changes to the planning system, The JTS Partnership can also advise on the likely impact of:

  • regional planning bodies and guidance
  • public consultation to be undertaken by developers or applicants
  • planning gain
  • sustainable development
