This planning appeal was to overcome the refusal for a second floor extension. That was refused

Our client was initially booked in for a Free No Obligation Consultation to run through the refusal reasons that had been used by Birmingham Council and to evaluate if an appeal was viable or if an alternative option would be best suited.

The Free No Obligation Consultation which took around 15 minutes found that this case was viable for appeal to the Planning Inspectorate, taking the decision process away from Birmingham Council.

As an organisation we have been finding recently a large number of errors in local authority planning officers decisions, helping support the appeal cases. We do suspect this has been caused by cutbacks in planning officer numbers and unprecedented increased workloads. This goes hand in hand with clients repeatedly stating that they had little or no correspondence throughout the application process and the first thing they knew was receiving the refusal notice.

Our Specialist Appeals Team who handle over 2.5% of all planning appeals in England and Wales that are currently produced and submitted, start by producing a comprehensive and robust appeal statement, that in this specific case covered 18 pages.

It is important to detail in the appeal statement where the local authority failed in their assessment of the case, and how and where possible both local and national policy applies in favour of the appeal, additionally if possible brining in similar cases that the planning inspectorate found in favour of the appeal. To put in to context the detail required, this particular appeal was over 4100 words.

Once an appeal statement is completed we send the document to our client asking them to check that they are happy for us to submit the case. If we need to add any additional information that the client may have forgotten previously to supply it is done at this point and the case is then submitted.

For this appeal an independent planning inspector from the Planning Inspectorate visited the site on 13th November. And we are pleased to confirm that the appeal was upheld and the permission granted on 24th January in a 3 page appeal decision notice.
