Hampton Lane Garage, Hampton Lane PROFESSIONAL PLANNING APPRAISAL
1. WHAT IS A PPA? 1.1 A PPA is a detailed appraisal of the development potential of a site by qualified Chartered Planners. It is based on a desk-top review of the site; the relevant planning policy; and planning history. 1.2 A planning appraisal is one of the most important and often under-rated planning services provided to clients. 1.3 A well-researched and prepared appraisal will set out in an easy-to-read format, the relevant opportunities and constraints applicable to a potential development opportunity. 1.4 This planning appraisal covers all the relevant issues, with the core services as follows: i) Identifying planning policies relevant to a site and/or proposal; ii) Review of planning history; iii) Site assessment to identify planning opportunities and constraints; iv) Advice on development potential and principles taking into account the constraints, opportunities, site characteristics and policy context; v) Potential site layouts. 1.5 The PPA report is paid for by the purchaser of the site upon completion (£700 + VAT is added to the contract) – they then have a £700 credit to spend on planning with the planning team if they pursue development.
