Planning Application
Planning Application
Planning is an integral element of what Arqemn does, offering a comprehensive range of planning services alongside our architectural design capabilities, whatever the nature of your project.
Whether it is a Residential, commercial, or industrial project, our team of experts acts as agents, preparing all the executive plans and files required to go all along the way with you doing all the planning application process regardless of the size and complexity of your project.
Submission Process
For any projects that require planning approval it is important that we carry out a measured survey, and initially produce an accurate set of existing drawings. These drawings are important to the planning submission, but also for developing the design proposals that will form part of the architect planning application. Then, once your proposed development is ready to go, we will submit your application and liaise with the Local Planning Department whilst it is being determined.
Once submitted, it can take to our Local Planning Department between 6 and 10 weeks to issue a decision, depending on the scale of the development proposed. More complex major developments may take longer, subject to agreement with the Planning Board Department. During this time we will keep you fully informed of the progress, attend any meetings, and will respond to any inquiries we receive to make the process run as smoothly as possible.
