Planning & Development

Imaginative strategic thinking, focussed advice, and tenacious promotion of defensible client interests. FLAC: the indispensable team member for arboriculture. 

For developers:

We use our high-level expertise and vast experience to add value out of all proportion to our fees.

Our expert arboricultural surveyors provide the highest quality baseline data, which informs a commercially realistic tree retention / removal strategy. We work with masterplanners, urban designers and Architects to weave this into planning-friendly schemes that deliver outstanding bottom line.

Our offer is simple: appoint FLAC to your project to reduce planning risk whilst optimising land value.

Planning Appeals
Less than 1% of FLAC-promoted schemes are refused consent for arboricultural reasons. Where necessary, we provide an unrivalled expert witness service.

Ancient Woodland Planning Permission
