Planning Appeals
At A. B. Consulting we pride ourselves in being able to offer our clients a full and comprehensive service and an important part of this is the planning appeals process. As a planning consultancy we have extensive experience of many types of planning appeals, from written representations to informal hearings and public inquiries. With our experience we can help guide you through the appeals process and advise on the best course of action for your planning appeal.
Below are some examples of the planning appeals we have been involved in.
Project 1
Location: Shrewsbury, Shropshire
Use: Residential
Appeal Type: Written Representations
A planning appeal was made against Shrewsbury & Atcham Borough Council's decision to refuse planning permission for the erection of a single dwelling in the garden of a semi detached house. The Council argued the proposed dwelling was out of character and adversely affected the street scene and neighbours amenity. We submitted a robust case which assessed in detail the character of the area and proved the new dwelling would be in keeping, have no effect on the street scene or any neighbours. The Inspector agreed with our case and allowed the appeal.
Project 2
Location: Oswestry, Shropshire
Use: Residential
Appeal Type: Written Representations
The local authority refused two applications for new dwellings in the grounds of a large detached property. They considered the site too cramped, that the setting of the original house would be affected and vehicular access was unacceptable. Two written representation appeals were made and both were successful. The Inspectors allowed both appeals and three new dwellings have been built.
