OUR INVOLVEMENT

Planning & Architecture

Project Outline

Our Planning & Architectural Teams advised and supported the applicants through the planning process. The application site was located in the countryside on land adjoining a local school and followed a previous application for a change of use to riding school and livery yard. We supported the application with technical details provided by the manufacturer. It is important to ensure that the flood lighting is designed within the minimum level of light spillage to ensure the proposal does not impact on adjoining occupiers. We also spoke at Planning Committee on behalf of the applicants and secured planning permission at local level.
