Hillside House, 1- Hillside, Cotham 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.
