PLANNING

​

SITE SURVEY: We conduct a comprehensive site survey at your location to ensure everything is perfect for your eco-lodge. This service is provided entirely free of charge.

 

PERMITTED DEVELOPMENT PLANNING: If required, we handle the planning application process for you. The cost is covered by you initially, but it’s fully deducted from your final purchase price.

​

This section details the process to obtain the necessary permissions to allow the installation of "Eco Lodges" within a client's residential garden areas prior to the installation of the unit.

​

There may be several ways of gaining the necessary permissions, which will vary depending on specific location and site constraints.

 

1). Permitted Development 

Where the proposal falls within the scope of Permitted Development Rights, this will be the simplest route. However, it is always advisable to obtain a Certificate of Lawful Development so that there can be no doubt or challenge by the relevant Local Planning Authority, the Parish/Town Council or your neighbours. 

 

In some cases, Permitted Development Rights may have been removed or curtailed by the Local Planning Authority. In almost all cases, we will be able to identify whether a property has had its Permitted Development Rights removed and this will be checked as the first step in the planning process. 

 

2). Full Planning Permission 

In certain cases, full Planning Permission will be required, either where Permitted Development Rights do not apply or the PD rules cannot be met.

 

NB - These fees will increase where:- 

  • The dwelling is a Listed Building

  • The site is within a Conservation Area

  • There is a surface water or flooding issue

  • Where important or protected trees are involved

  • Where other buildings are to be demolished

  • Where the site is within a National Park or the Broads

  • In those cases, we will need the services of other Consultants:-

  • Heritage Consultant for Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas

  • Arboricultural Consultant for Tree Issues

  • Ecologists for building demolition to provide mitigation should protected species be discovered. 

In these more complex cases, the professional Fees of JCE and other consultants will be agreed prior to seeking the necessary permission.

 

CUSTOMER RISK

Our nominated Planning & Architectural Consultancy (PAC) only take on cases which they think have a reasonable likelihood of success. There may be circumstances where, due to the specifics of the site itself, they will advise that an application is not made. Clients should also be aware that there are never any guarantees of success when it comes to the English Planning System and whilst our nominated PAC operates with a very high success rate, no promises can be made as to the outcome of the application's. 

 

APPEALS

Should your application be refused, you have a right of Appeal to the Secretary of State (via the Planning Inspectorate). Each application is considered on its merits and, where we feel that you may have a reasonable chance of success at Appeal, we would be pleased to provide you with our advice together with our fee proposal at that time.
