Detailed Drainage Design

The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) defines a planning condition as, ‘A condition imposed on a grant of planning permission (in accordance with the Town and Country Planning Act 1990) or a condition included in a Local Development Order or Neighbourhood Development Order.’

Conditions are imposed on some applications as an alternative to issuing an objection or refusal of a planning application. These conditions might require additional information or approvals for specific aspects of the development. On occasions there are opportunities to engage with the Local Planning Authority before the application is submitted to broadly agree the conditions that could be imposed and recommended. This saves you and them time and cost as you won’t have to resubmit anything.

Our team are able to progress a planning applications that has been imposed with planning conditions. If a condition has been issued for a drainage strategy it is likely that more information is needed. More information will likely require more surveys to be conducted in order to source the data needed to inform the strategy and discharge the condition.

Our team are able to review your project and the condition imposed to advise whether further surveys could be required whilst working with you on how we can overcome discharging of the conditions.
