This service provides written advice that is more detailed in nature compared to the silver and bronze options. It focuses on what we consider to be the main issues relating to the development. The advice offered is based solely on the information you submit.
Internal consultation may be undertaken with specialist services at our discretion, but it is limited to consideration of the main issues.
Consulted responses from external partners such as Historic England, the Environment Agency or Wessex Water are not included.
Unaccompanied site visits may be undertaken at our discretion.
Timeline
We aim to provide our written advice to you within eight weeks of the request. During periods of high demand this may take longer.
Fees and charges
The fee for this service varies depending on scale of development. You can see the various charges on our fees page.
Please note, if you would like us to focus our response on one issue only, for example highway matters, there will be no reduction in the cost of the service.
This service is not provided for householder schemes (proposals to extend or alter an existing dwelling).
