I am going to have to pay an architect to get our single integral grange conversion into a living room through planning. It will cost me £800. Trawling through the Planning Portal and the Local Council site has possibly taken a week of my time and I just can't do it.
I do not know what a 'planning statement' is, what it should state. I do not know why one is mandatory.
I do not know why I need a biodiversity statement.
I do not know why I need to state how many employees my garage conversion will employ and what its opening hours will be.......
I do not know why I have to make an Affordable Housing statement. For my garage conversion.
Now, having spend many, many hours on it, I can no longer find which subsection of which subsection tells me what scale the 15 odd maps and plans I have to supply have to be.
I am close to tears with pure frustration.

OK. I officially give up trying to apply for planning permission.
