Environmental Planning

The Landmark Practice’s environmental planners have extensive experience of preparing environmental studies to support planning applications for development, both in the UK and abroad.

We provide advice on projects, co-ordinate and undertake master planning, feasibility studies and constraints planning and provide support for discharge of environmental planning conditions and agreements. We also give evidence on behalf of our clients at Appeals and Public Inquiries.
