The law relating to town and country planning has a major impact upon the physical environment and affects private citizens, landowners and developers alike. This new edition is a comprehensive and accessible text for students, practitioners and members of the general public on this difficult area of law.
The first edition of this book was awarded the Gold Award for Best Reference Work by the Chartered Institute of Building in 1999; a number of significant changes to planning law and policy have arisen in the interim. This new edition has been thoroughly revised, therefore, to incorporate new developments in legislation and infrastructure, such as the Localism Act, changes to Planning Policy Guidance, and sustainability.
The authors have drawn on their own experience as Chartered Planners to create text that is up to date, practical and easily understood. New pedagogical features, including case studies, discussion points, and diagrams, help to illuminate this often challenging and changeable area of the law. As such, Planning Law and Practice is a welcome up-to-date resource for students and practitioners of planning law.
