Against the country

Harder than the average.

The England benchmark is 87%. It is the share of decided applications that were approved, so a withdrawal counts as neither. Source: MHCLG Live Table P120A (England, rolling 12-month).

What this authority decides against.

An application is judged against the adopted development plan unless material considerations say otherwise. This is that plan, and the levy that comes with it.

What Wren does here

22.4% of applications here are refused.

Harrow decided 1,380 applications in the reporting year, and refused about 22.4% of them. A refusal is usually a document problem rather than a scheme problem: the policy that governs it was not addressed, or the evidence it asks for was not there.

Wren drafts against Harrow Local Plan, a chartered planner reads the draft and signs it under their own indemnity, and a case manager files it and chases it. A householder application is £499, and Harrow's own statutory fee is separate and paid by you directly to them.
