Resubmisson of Equestrian Workers Dwelling, taking over a case in Durham

We also take over projects when difficult technicalities have led to a refusal. In this case the applicant had applied for a dwelling without realising the complications of the planning system. We meet with the Client and discussed how we would make the application and viewed the site.

We made arguments for the principle of the development and that it should be accepted showing that despite being outside of development limits the proposals were an exception that should be allowed.

We then followed up with the key considerations including being on site for ill horses and showing how the business could support a full time worker.

There were issues with connecting to an existing foul sewage container at the site and Prisms experience of drainage meant the matter was quickly resolved. We also supported our client by getting the Council to quickly agree to a last minute change of building materials. The application was granted.
