We were instructed to assist in the preparation and submission of a revised application following withdrawal of an earlier application after considerable opposition had arisen to plans to increase the height of the clients property in the towns conservation area. Following consideration of these local objections, and in spite of the level of opposition, we advised the client that the proposal should acceptable and that subject to some subtle amendments it should be re-submitted to the Council.
The application was duly re-submitted and we assisted in negotiations between the Councils Conservation and Planning Departments and the clients architects, which resulted in the scheme being approved.

Our clients instructed us following the refusal of an application to retain two existing hoarding signs, and an advanced directional sign for their hotel and spa. Following this refusal we entered into negotiations on our clients behalf, liaising between the Planning and Highways departments, and their clients signage designers. Following these discussions a revised scheme was submitted with an amended design for the illuminated hoarding signs which included landscaping, and an altered design for the advanced directional sign. Following consideration of these designs, and a strong argument underlining their importance for the future success of the business, the Council approved the scheme. |

In this case the threat of enforcement action by the Council had endangered our clients seafood preparation business, a small cottage industry undertaken in buildings next to their dwelling. The Council had suggested that the business was disturbing neighbours and harming the area. However following the preparation of a forceful case showing that in fact there was no harm to the area, or impact upon our clients’ neighbours, enforcement action was dropped and permission granted for the business.

We were retained by our client following the refusal of permission to replace an existing dilapidated sheet metal garage on his land with a replacement garage with a games room and living accommodation to complement the use of the main dwelling house a holiday letting business. Following consideration of the appeal the Inspector refused permission as he felt that additional information should be provided to address whether the proposed replacement garage may effect the neighbours living conditions.
Following preparation of this additional study we were able to satisfy the Council that there would be no harm to the living conditions of the neighbours and permission was granted for the proposal.

Sited in the Snowdonia National Park any development of this caravan site had to be treated in a sensitive manner. Owen Devenport’s clients were a large caravan site operator who had recently bought this site at Betws-y-Coed in order to upgrade the facilities. Negotiations with the Park officers followed and agreement was reached on the design of the new reception and amenity block, together with more touring pitches and more ‘super pitches’ allowing for greater use throughout the year. The application was finally given the green light by the National Park, and redevelopment of the site commenced. After its completion the upgraded facilities has meant that business is growing and further expansion is in the pipeline.
