Description
The Planning Game book by planning expert Ken Dijksman explains the game that is getting planning permission! Planning is a game and, like any game, there are rules that govern how you play - but not who wins.
People who are new to property development talk about building 'in accordance with the rules' or 'complying with the building regulations' but in the world of planning consent there are no clear-cut rules or regulations. So how can you predict what might be allowed?
In this book Ken Dijksman gives the reader an insider's insight into the planning system, explaining how it works and how you can maximise your chances of winning The Planning Game and get your planning permission.
Having worked as a planning officer for 17 years, Ken Dijksman has an excellent insight into how the planning system works and so has been able to write one of the best planning books on the subject. He now runs a planning consultancy as well as writing and lecturing extensively.
