The Inspector, who is independent of the local authority and the applicant, will then look again at the case, and can either agree with or overturn the local council\u2019s decision.Once a planning decision has been made only the applicant can appeal against that decision.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Appeals of refusals of planning permission are heard and decided by a Planning Inspector. There is no third party right of appeal for other people who disagree with the local council\u2019s decision.The Council&#8217;s decision does not have to be final and circumstances other than a refusal, such as onerous conditions or restrictions, can also be appealed. However, time is of the essence as there is a restricted period within which an appeal can be made, which is six months from the date of the decision notice to refuse or 12 weeks in the case of Householder Applications.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">In order to achieve the best chance of success an appeal needs to be made early. It is also beneficial to consider engaging professional help as the legal requirements and technical language utilised by the planning authorities, if you are unaccustomed to it, may be confusing. That confusion can lead to an appeal being dismissed rather than allowed.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Anyone can challenge a planning decision in the courts, if they have evidence that the planning decision was not made following the proper procedures. Legal challenges cannot take into account whether the decision was right or not in planning terms, only whether regulations and conventions about making decisions were properly followed. Challenging a planning decision in the courts is a difficult and costly process, and should not be undertaken without specialist legal advice.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">An applicant who is refused planning permission, or who finds the conditions attached to the permission unacceptable, has the right to appeal to the Secretary of State for planning.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Appeals are heard by independent inspectors from the Planning Inspectorate, an agency of the Department for Communities and Local Government.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Inspectors are appointed by the Secretary of State.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">When this happens, the local authority is always informed. If you have been involved at the application stage, the authority will notify you, too.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">If you haven&#8217;t been involved up to this point, you can ask your council&#8217;s chief planning officer to let you know if a planning decision that concerns you is being appealed against.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">An appeal can be started once<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0The local authority either takes a decision on a planning application that the developer finds unacceptable<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0or hasn&#8217;t taken a decision within eight weeks if the application is a minor one, or thirteen weeks if it is a major one<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0or serves an Enforcement Notice on development it believes has flouted planning controls<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">The applicant must then appeal to the Secretary of State within three months, who then decides a method of appeal. All interested parties organise their evidence and if the case is significant enough, a public inquiry takes place. The inspector will make a formal site visit, and then make a decision on the appeal.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Court challenges<\/strong><\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Planning decisions can be challenged in the courts if there is evidence that the process by which the decision was made was unlawful. A court challenge can be very complex, lengthy and costly, however, and shouldn&#8217;t be undertaken without legal advice. This section explains how court challenges can be made.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Please call Plan B Architecture Today On 0208 4072472 To Know More About Appeals<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">If you find yourself in this unfortunate situation, you have come to the right place!
