Using Viability Appraisals in Planning
This Guidance Note has been prepared to explain how viability appraisals submitted with planning applications will be used to inform negotiations.
When should Viability Discussions take place?
Ideally, viability negotiations should form part of pre-application discussions. Reviewing information submitted to identify potential viability issues at an early stage, allows the greatest scope for resolving the issues, helping to minimise delays in processing and determining your subsequent planning application(s).
