Landscape design is often seen as something to think about after planning
permission has been granted. It is understandable that people applying for
permission may not want to finalise the exact details of things like paving
materials or plant species until they are sure the plan has been approved.
Leaving landscaping to the end of the design process is now not acceptable
to
most Local Authorities and has to be included in the Design and Access
statement that accompanies the planning application.
The statement should explain the principles that will be used to draw up the
landscape details. This means landscape decisions can be considered in
tandem with all other design issues, which will help to create better
places.
