Who is this for?
This is for small scale domestic and business projects only.
A duty planning service is available between 8:30 am - 2:30 pm Monday to Friday in the reception area of Parklands building, Civic Offices, London Road, Basingstoke. You do not need an appointment to see a Planning Officer.
The depth of advice given is dependent on the information you can give to the Officer as no prior research will be undertaken when considering the proposal put forward.
Your Commitment will be to:
- Provide plans, sketches and photos which will all be useful to the planning officer.
- Accept that any complex schemes will need to be submitted under a more formal pre-application approach if applicable.
- That the meetings will have a time restriction as other customers may be waiting for advice from the same Planning Officer.
Our Commitment will be to:
- Offer an initial view on the information submitted.
- Confirm the advice in writing within 10 working days.
- Be aware of the limitations of this service. If the proposal is too complicated or requires further research you may need to seek private planning advice from an architect or planning agent.
- Use all endeavours to determine any subsequent planning application within 8 weeks of registration.
