Examples of LPAs undertaking planning consultancy work
New Member Publications: 7 Date d'inscription: 09/08/16 Publications RécentesHi
My own authority (Gateshead Council) are looking at additional ways of generating income. One opportunity is to offer a planning consultancy role for schemes. We have
started advising internal Council departments on schemes (we have been careful to separate the role with the LPA role in determining planning applications) but are looking to role this out more widely.
I was wondering if anyone knew other examples of LPAs undertaking this role or any guidance on best practice?
Any advice gratefully received!
Regards
Iain

We have a Conservation Officer and some of our neighbouring authorities don't. He spends one day a week on work for other Districts for which we charge primarily on planning applications but also assisting with a THI project. It brings in around £10,000 per annum.
This has been in operation for five years but we are considering ending it because of the impact on our own work priorities.
