Planning Consultants in York
York is one of England's most historic cities, with extensive Roman, Viking, and medieval heritage. The city walls, the Minster, and numerous listed buildings and conservation areas mean heritage impact assessment is required for most significant development. The City of York Council has a Local Plan providing the strategic framework for housing and commercial development, with particular focus on brownfield delivery.
