Associate Director Alan Davies gave his lecture on the evolution of the planning system and how to successfully navigate it, to architecture students at Bournemouth University (BU).
Loise Thompson (Lecturer) stated: ‘A huge thanks to Alan Davies of CL Planning for providing our 2nd year Architecture students with an insight into the planning system. A great talk as always and well received by the students’.
Alan commented ‘it is always a pleasure to give the lecture – each year they ask pointed questions and are usually awestruck by the (increasing) complexity of just getting one of their projects validated by the Local Planning Authority – let alone getting it approved. The fact that a project needs to gain approval from a committee – not just the officers – is something they are unfamiliar with, and therefore an understanding the whole application procedure is vital.’
