  1. Introduction • The views and feedback from customers is at the heart of what the planning quality framework is about. To get these views, we’ve created 2 sets of surveys that can be sent to different customers of the planning service: • Regular (e.g. weekly) surveys • Applicants(members of the public that have made a planning application) • Agents (a professional person or company making a planning application) • Neighbours (a person/organisation that has commented on an application) • Case review (for the council to assess how well it did) • 2. Annual surveys • Councillors – how does planning affect your role? • Staff – what’s it like to work here? • Amenity Groups – how does planning affect the community? • How it works - The surveys are set up and run through an internet application called‘Limesurvey’. We’ll create a Limesurvey account for each council. It takes basic customer details (from an excel spreadsheet you create from your management system), emails them a survey and records and stores their responses. It also sends reminders and makes reports. • Create your account and surveys. All you need to do is email @qualityframework.net and provide the following information: • name and email address of the main administrator • a j.peg file of your council’s logo on a white background • the email address that you’d like the surveys to be emailed from (this might be a person or a generic email e.g. planning@council.gov.uk)

  2. Planning Quality Framework Applicant Survey

  3. * The council usually requires you to send in supporting information with the planning application itself. Did the council use the supporting information well? Did the additional information the council required with the application make sense and did the council use the information you provided well? The council’s decision should be clear and relevant. It should not contain surprises and any conditions should be reasonable. Planning Quality Framework Applicant Survey

  4. Planning Quality Framework Agent Survey

  5. Planning Quality Framework NeighbourSurvey

  6. Planning Quality Framework NeighbourSurvey

  7. Planning Quality Framework Case Review Survey

  8. Example output This is an example of one of the ways that survey data can bepresented linked to individual applications. This example is where the applicant and neighbours have completed the survey and the case has been reviewed internally by the council. Application Ref: HA/FUL/4456/14 Council
