How do I submit a planning application or a prior notification?

If you Google a planning-related query, sooner or later you will get to Planning Portal. A joint venture between the UK government and a private company; Planning Portal was originally founded in 2002 as an entry point to planning information online but become a private entity that works in partnership with the Government in 2015.

While planning applications can be submitted via post to the respective LPA, nearly all of them now encourage people to submit their applications through Planning Portal.

Planning Portal also provides interactive guidance for a lot of common housing-based development, such as extensions, sheds, and garages.

I'm very excited to share that I have been shortlisted as a finalist in the RICS Matrics Young Surveyor of the Year Awards 2021 in the Land (Rural and Urban) category.

Feeling very proud to have made it this far among so many brilliant colleagues! Best of luck to all the other finalists.

Fingers crossed! 🤞

The first-year anniversary of Saunders Rural Solutions already! Celebrating with cake and a planning application approval seems to be a good way to mark the event.
