Planning application – Detached garage in Bracknell granted planning permission

Cameron Jones Planning were successful in gaining planning permission for a detached garage after a year long battle with the Council over its height. The owners had gained permission for the garage with a room in the roof but when it was built the roof was raised by 30cm. The Council received complaints that it was not in accordance to the approved plans and refused planning permission for an amended version of the garage.

I then provided advice and submitted a new planning application to retain the building as constructed presenting the application with a streetscene plan to show that there was no harm. 13 letters of support were submitted and the application was approved. The owners can now complete the building. The relieved owner stated “Thanks so much again. It really is wonderful news!”

Appeal – two storey side extension in Hampton

The owner of a semi-detached dwelling approached us following refusal of planning permission for a  first floor side extension.  I advised that an amendment could overcome the concerns raised by the Council over infilling a gap between the properties.  The Council refused the amended scheme and I submitted an appeal against the refusal.  Decision pending.

Pre-application advice New dwellinghouse in Teddington

I was approached by a couple who were buying a house and wanted to build an end-of-terrace house on their plot. I undertook a site visit and drafted the pre-application letter providing a full justification for the development. The meeting held with the Council’s planners was very positive and the Council gave their verbal support for the scheme.

February 2017 – Planning application submitted for the new dwelling. I drafted the supporting planning statement and advised the applicant on matters relating to affordable housing, sustainability issues, parking, residential design standards, Community Infrastructure Levy, infill development, residential amenity issues and design. This was refused due to concerns with parking.​

September 2017 – Planning application submitted for the new dwelling. We submitted an amended planning application with more supporting evidence on parking and this was approved at Planning Committee.

Appeal – rear dormer in Teddington

We were requested by the owner of a flat to submit an appeal on his behalf for the erection of a dormer extension.  The owner was of the understanding that the dormer would be permitted development. However, as his property had been sub-divided into flats the dormer required planning permission.  The area is dominated by large rear dormers and therefore our planning statement focused on that.  Decision pending.
