Ep190: Why a council is set to charge for invalid planning applications plus PINS issues updated AI guidance
Room 106Show Notes
In this episode, we’ll be discussing:
New guidance from the Planning Inspectorate on artificial intelligence (AI), warning that “improper use” of the technology could result in cost awards against appeal parties, plus other updates on how planners are using AI. A council announcing that it is considering charging developers and householders if they submit invalid planning applications, to reflect the “true cost” of processing the paperwork. Another local authority saying it will pursue “hundreds of thousands of pounds” in costs after a developer pulled out part way through a 190-home appeal. And the significance of a High Court ruling that upholds a planning inspector’s decision to back a developer’s bid to drop an affordable housing condition via a section 73 application.
Key planning news, and why it is important, brought to you by the team behind Planning magazine, the leading source of independent intelligence for planning professionals for 50 years.
