Our Consultants have a broad range of experience at appealing Planning Enforcement Notices.

Planning Enforcement Notices are served when development is carried out without planning permission or not in accordance with an approved application. Enforcement notices seek to stop work or try to have terms of an approved planning permission complied with. Failure to comply with an enforcement notice is an offence and may be subject to prosecution.

It is important to note that you only have one month to appeal a Planning Enforcement Notice. Failing to appeal will result in you having to carry out the works started on the notice. If the notice is not complied with you are at risk of further legal action.

The assistance of a well thought out appeal statement will improve the likelihood of having the Planning Enforcement Notice dismissed and the development or works staying in place rather than being removed.

It is also important to note that a Planning Enforcement Notice will show up on any search of your property and could hinder the sale of a property.

Many mortgage lenders will not lend on a property with an outstanding Planning Enforcement Notice. If an appeal is successful the notice will be removed from the property details.

It is vital to act fast after being served with a Planning Enforcement Notice due to the one month time frame you have to appeal. Our consultants will work on these projects on short notice in order to submit an effective appeal statement for you.

If you have been served a Planning Enforcement Notice or have been informed that one will be served, please do not hesitate to contact us.
