Planning Appeals

We offer guidance and expert support throughout the planning appeals process.

We offer a recourse for planning concerns

At Boyer, we know that appeals are a frequent occurrence of the development process and aim to make this as easy as possible to manage. This is through providing expert advice in appealing against planning permission refusal or non-determination by going to the Planning Inspectorate. While only the original applicant has the right to appeal, our team of experts can help with informal hearings, written appeals, public inquiries, and Householder Appeals Services (HAS).

Our people have years of experience in this area and are ready to use it to increase your chances of success.

Quick Answers

A planning appeal is a process that allows an applicant to challenge a planning decision made by a local planning authority. Appeals are submitted to the Planning Inspectorate, which independently reviews the case and decides whether planning permission should be granted.

A planning appeal can usually be submitted if a planning application has been refused, if conditions attached to permission are disputed, or if a local planning authority has failed to determine the application within the required timeframe.

The timeframe for a planning appeal varies depending on the type of appeal and how it is considered. Written representation appeals may take several months, while more complex cases involving hearings or public inquiries can take longer before a decision is issued by the Planning Inspectorate.

The success of a planning appeal depends on the planning merits of the case and how well the proposal aligns with planning policy. A strong appeal typically includes clear evidence demonstrating why the planning decision should be reconsidered.

A planning appeal is supported by documents such as the original planning application, planning officer reports, technical evidence and a planning statement explaining why the proposal should be approved in line with planning policy.
