Make an appeal

If someone else owns land or property that바카라 사이트™s included in your appeal, you must tell them before you start your appeal.

You should also make sure you have all the documents you need.

Fees

There바카라 사이트™s no fee for appealing.

Documents you need

Your appeal statement

You바카라 사이트™ll need to create an appeal statement. This is a document that explains why you바카라 사이트™re appealing.

It바카라 사이트™s sometimes called a statement of case. Find out how to make a statement of case.

Copies

You바카라 사이트™ll need to submit copies of:

  • your planning application form
  • the decision letter from the local planning authority (LPA), if you have one
  • all plans, drawings and documents you sent to the LPA in your application
  • the site plan for your appeal site
  • the ownership certificate document, if you submitted one separately as part of your application

If you바카라 사이트™re requesting a hearing or public inquiry

You also need to create a draft statement of common ground. This is a document explaining the parts of your planning application that you believe the local planning department will not disagree with.

Preparing your documents

You can submit the documents as any of these file types, as long as they바카라 사이트™re smaller than 15MB:

  • DOC or DOCX
  • JPG or JPEG
  • PDF
  • PNG
  • TIF or TIFF

Make sure all documents are fully readable without any redacted text.

If someone else owns land or property that바카라 사이트™s involved in your appeal

You must tell them that you intend to appeal.

Example 1:

Your appeal is about building a house on a field you own. You do not have to tell anybody else, because you own the whole field.
