propertytalk Live! - New proposals for planning fees to make a fairer system
Proposals for a fairer planning fees system have been presented by the Government for consultation.
At the moment local council taxpayers have been left subsidising the costs of dealing with planning applications.
Councils have been unable to recover the true costs of applications because of a fixed fee charging system set by central Government. This has meant local taxpayers having to make up any shortfall in revenue through their council tax bills.
