Discuss your project ideas with a planning officer so that you can resolve any planning policy or design issues before you submit your application.

Other things you should do
To get the best possible advice from us, you should make sure you:
- identify a single point of contact within your team (usually the applicant, a planning consultant or an architect)
- keep to agreed timescales and deadlines for providing responses to us
For larger proposals, you should also:
- arrange public engagement early in scheme development: use specialist consultants when needed
- agree a schedule of meetings
- make sure all the information we need is prepared ahead of the meetings including presentations to the council’s design review panel
- provide high-quality illustrations suitable for presentation to a wide range of audiences
- provide draft notes of meetings
