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; and
iv) Advice on development potential and principles taking into account the constraints, opportunities, site characteristics and policy context.
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. 2.
