Planning Appeal

Appeal submitted against a Lawful Development Certificate, Bletchingley

I was approached by a home owner following refusal of consent for a two storey rear extension to a detached dwelling in the Green Belt. This was a very technical issue on whether the extension could be interpreted as permitted development. The appeal was dismissed as the 30cm rear gable was considered as a side elevation.

Planning appeal for new dwellinghouse in Walthamstow – Success

The owner of the property submitted a further application which the Council refused on 3 grounds  – design, lack of cycle space and lack of financial contribution towards trees. We submitted another appeal and applied for an award of costs against the Council.  We were successful on all grounds with planning permission being approved for the new 3 bedroom dwelling and the Inspector agreeing with us that the Council had been unreasonable and awarded full costs relating to two of the reasons for refusal.  A great result.
