Planning Permission in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire
Stonehills, Welwyn Garden City
Full planning permission secured for the replacement of a pitched roof with a mansard-style roof extension in connection with the provision of 12no. self-contained flats comprising 7no. 2-bed, 4no. 1-bed, and 1no. studio, alongside various works to the property’s fenestration.
Prior to submission of the full planning application, a pre-application enquiry was made to establish the principle of development. Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s Planning Officers offered unambiguous support for all elements of the proposal, which gave the client the confidence required to progress to a full planning submission.
In spite of being a ‘major’ planning application and attracting a great deal of interest, the concise case made for the scheme meant the Borough Council’s Planning Committee was avoided. Officers ultimately granted planning permission under delegated powers, saving the client time and minimizing project risk.
