Can a tenant object to a planning application?

If you need assistance with any of these issues - or you think there is definitely is cause for concern - we can provide swift, expert assistance to ensure the issues are confronted with maximum impact in as short a time-frame as possible.  Why not send us an enquiry to see what we can do for you?  Or you may be interested in our e-book which will provide helpful advice.

Its not just neighbours that can object... It's anyone!

We get approached a great deal by tenants and leaseholders asking is they can object to a planning application submitted by a landlord / freeholder or occasionally other leaseholders.

In short ANYONE can object to a planning application.  

Needless to say the key issue is not who, but HOW to object - particularly if you don't want to be thrown out on your ear!

There are certain legal and procedural requirements to planning applications that may affect tenants and leaseholders.  Certain notices must be given to anyone that has an interest in a property (such as owners, free-holders, lease-holders or some tenants) and particularly those with a tenancy of >7 years in duration.  If these haven't been served correctly - you may have a great opportunity to buy yourself some time! 

We strongly recommend that you seek for advice on such matters - as with so many things, there are correct ways and incorrect ways to handle these issues.

If you don't wish to hire a professional in the first instance - that's fine - instead why not approach the Citizens Advice Bureau for advice in the first instance.  You may wish to download our cheat sheet or a copy of our guide to objecting (and please be mindful that time is not on your side!).
If you have tenancy related concerns or general objection(s) to a planning application - you may benefit from professional  help and advice

About this site

This website and associated online services are provided by The Planning Objection Company Ltd (trading as iObject.co.uk).  The business was founded in 2012 to provide a dedicated planning objection advice and consultancy service - specifically helping those people wishing to oppose planning proposals.

Planning applications submitted throughout the UK are able to be challenged by members of the public for a wide variety of reasons.  However, how this is best achieved is generally unclear and can be extremely daunting to the uninitiated.  We are planning consultants who specialise in helping people to get their views heard during the planning application phase of building and development projects.  We currently cover the English and Welsh planning systems - which are governed by the Town & Country Planning Act 1990 (As amended) and by various National Planning Policy Guidance, along with statute and related policies.  Local plans and planning authorities also have their own individual planning policies that add additional layers of complexity to the objection and representation process. 

​We are here to make the objection process simple, concise and straightforward - enabling our customers to build the best possible case for halting inappropriate development.
