“David Coleman and his colleague have had extensive experience of local government planning and this is evident in the quality of the work that he has produced for us since becoming involved in our project towards the end of 2016.
His proposals and cost estimates have always been clear and detailed and delivery has been exemplary. He has been very helpful to us as we have got to grips with the multiple issues involved in creating our Neighbourhood Plan and demonstrated a level of flexibility which we have found invaluable.
We have no hesitation in recommending the services of DAC Planning to any group which is attempting the task of putting together a Neighbourhood Plan.”

"Bradwell with Pattiswick Parish Council engaged David Coleman (DAC Planning) to support the development of their Neighbourhood Plan. A very ambitious timescale was set.
Our requirements were clear, we needed help in drafting the Regulation 14 document, particularly the translation of the residents' requirements into policies which were consistent with international, national and local planning policies. We also needed a Basic Condition Statement and guidance through the regulatory process.
David provided a clear quote to which he adhered.
David (and Tim) was always clear in his drafting and explanation of what was acceptable and what was unlikely to be acceptable.
David attended meetings promptly, was always courteous and polite in his dealings with the Parish Council, Braintree District Council and members of the public and had clearly prepared thoroughly for each meeting. David is very knowledgeable, competent and experienced, with his help we achieved our ambitious timescale and only had a few minor modifications between Regulation 14 and Regulation 15/16.
We highly recommend David to anyone thinking of embarking on a Neighbourhood Plan."

"DAC were professional at all times, well connected and experienced. The process of Neighbourhood Planning was long , full of pitfalls and reverses and we were largely novices at the whole area of planning. We relied on DAC for both formal and informal advice about the technical side of planning law. We had to extend their involvement several times and they were competitively priced throughout the process. The service was personal, while being objective and challenging, and we always felt they were on our side."
"Consistently motivated to work with a community group and help us to translate our planning objectives into policy, and navigate the loose and changing guidance around neighbourhood planning. Responsive to questions when we needed them.
Yes, we were very satisfied with the outcome of the Neighbourhood Plan."
