Planning Application

Planning Application

Introduction

A planning application is required when permission is needed to build or change the utility of buildings or land. In the United Kingdom, the possessor of the land or building will need to posses the title and also the planning title or permission. It utilizes the system where the development plans are created and the consultation of the public is taken. Consequent development involves asking for planning permission, which is either accepted or rejected with links to the plan of the development (Wood & Jones, 1997, p.1237-1257).

Discussion

As per the Town and County Planning Act 1947, the titles of planning were awarded to all preexisting use and structures. According to the law, “development” is known as any operations of mining, engineering and construction, or the modification of material to any land or structure. Specific kinds of operations such as usual mantainence of a present structure are exclusively barred from the description of development. Particular categories of slight or irrelevant development are given a routine permission for planning as per the law, and so there is no need to file an application of permission for planning. These groups are known as the permitted development (Council & Welsh, 2013).

For a national park, the application needs to be offered to the authority of the national park. All the local planning authorities have their own website through which the appropriate application forms, contact details and any other appropriate documents. The authorities are open to discuss the fact that the proposal will need planning permission, and if it does, then they tell the chances of the permission planning being endowed.

The law asks for all the application of the planning permission to be determined complying with the terms and conditions of the development plan; until and unless the considerations of the planning concerns specify something else. The decision of any of the applications of the planning is thus policy-centred rather than influence-centred. Even though the public and the residents of the area will be taken into consideration about nearly any application of planning, the choice will not be made on the basis of attractiveness or unattractiveness. The outline of the decision by reference to issued policy planning stops the decision on an application of planning being made on the basis of if it is random, obstinate, or subject to immodesty. Hence it is vital that the applicant for the planning permission should be sure of the appropriate local development ...
