Planning and Regeneration Consultancy Services

As a professionally qualified town planner with over thirty years' experience I can help you get the positive outcome you need for your project. I specialise in finding creative solutions to challenging problems



Understanding the planning and development process and especially understanding how local government works, can often be a daunting task - you may not know who you need to approach, what information you need or the best strategy to get the outcome you want.


I can help you with the answers. I have worked in local government for over thirty years, managing the planning process - dealing with planning applications as well as local plans - and delivering regeneration projects and with this experience I can help you navigate a route to the successful delivery of your project.

   

I've managed multi-disciplinary teams including planning, building control, economic development, property and housing with the focus on end to end delivery of projects.

   

 

  
 

 

 

   

   

   

   

 

With this background I can offer support in the following areas:

  • putting together and making planning applications (including pre application enquiries), including advocacy at planning meetings
  • undertaking development appraisals and advising on the potential to gain planning approval
  • responding to the threat of enforcement
  • promoting land for development through the local plans process
  • lodging objections to undesirable development proposals either through local plans or against planning applications
  • overseeing the delivery of complex regeneration projects
  • land and property acquisition and site assembly
  • managing and coordinating multi-disciplinary professional teams to deliver projects
  • preparing and submitting funding bids and business cases using the Green Book model
  • policy and strategy writing
  • analysing complex information and preparing briefing papers.
