The Essential Elements of Support for Planning and Listed Building Control
This popular workshop (previously known as The Essential Elements of DC Support) is designed to give support staff a contextual understanding of the complexities of processing planning and other applications, so that they can develop their knowledge and confidence and see the importance and relevance of their jobs. It focuses particularly on issues surrounding validation, calculation of fees, notification and consultation requirements. Practical work demonstrates how to scale and read plans. Through a mixture of presentation and group-work, participants learn how applications are determined, enabling them to deal with some of the more general enquiries. The importance of decision notices, maintaining the Register, and issues of access to information are also considered.

PARTICIPANT COMMENTS:
"I particularly found the appeal information and scaling off of plans useful and extremely informative. I have a few points to take back to my Authority and hope they will be implemented."
"Very informative and well presented, the work sheets were easy to follow and very interesting, and I have learnt a lot more. "
Stephen Weetman, York City Council
"It illustrated the role in DC very well and clearly. It also highlighted areas that we hadn't considered or do not cover already in our role. "
Emily Waring, East Staffordshire Borough Council
