Wokingham Borough Council

Cameron Jones Planning secured a PIP for our client for two three bedroom dwellings on a vacant parcel of land adjacent to an existing dwelling on Ilbury Close. The site historically accommodated a side extension and garage associated with the host dwelling. The Local Planning Authority considered that any adverse impacts of the proposal would not significantly outweigh the benefits. With regards to Wokingham Borough Council’s poor housing land supply position, the sustainable location of the site and the absence of any overriding constraints, the tilted balance weighed in favour of the proposal.

We are now working on the full planning permission (in the form of Technical Details Consent) which will be submitted to Wokingham Borough Council in October.

We successfully gained retrospective planning permission for a client in Wokingham whose Permitted Development rights for loft conversions had been removed when planning permission was granted for the housing development. The application required a biodiversity survey and parking plan to be submitted in addition to the usual plans and elevations.

We would recommend all house purchasers to check the original planning permission for the development on which they are buying to ensure there are no conditions restricting future developments.
