Strategic Land Promotion

If you want to maximise the potential of your land, Cedar Planning is ideally positioned to assist. Leveraging our extensive expertise in the plan-making system, we devise compelling land promotion strategies tailored to your site. We also possess the capability to locate and pinpoint sites suitable for development.

Planning Objections

Inappropriate development in unsuitable locations can adversely affect local your way of life or your business.

We offer assistance with thoroughly researched and targeted planning objections to ensure your voice is heard.

Sequential Tests

If your site is at risk of flooding, you may be required to produce a Sequential Test. National Planning Policy requires development to be directed to areas at lowest risk of flooding. A Sequential Test is used to demonstrate that there are no other sites for your development which are at a lower risk of flooding. This includes a comprehensive assessment of all other potential development sites in a given search area, and Cedar Planning are well placed to help you.
