Property Development Project - Day 2

Step 5 – Having drawn up the plan shown here (or something very similar). Ring up the Local Authority Planning Department and find out who in the planning team dealing with this area can discuss my proposals.

Step 6 – Having got a name and with great luck found that this person is available I speak to him on the phone and describe the scheme. The planner suggests writing in with a copy of the plan and he will give an informal opinion.

Step 7 – Draft a letter, print the plan and post both to the planning officer.

There is not much more that can be achieved on Day 2, since further work could be wasted if the answer comes back as ‘not a chance’.
