Reserved Matters Approved! DLP Planning Ltd are thrilled to have achieved approval for the reserved matters for Phase 2 of the retirement living village at Widmore Park, Sonning Common. The permission secured reserved matters approval in relation to layout, scale, appearance and landscaping for 60 assisted living units. This is a great result for our client as work on Phase 1 has already started and the proposals will assist in delivering much needed older persons housing to the area. The proposals also demonstrate quality design that will integrate within the wider setting of Chilterns National Landscape. Thank you to the entire project team for their inputs into this scheme. Should you have any planning queries in relation to retirement living then please get in touch with our Bedford Office at enquiries@dlpconsultants.co.uk. #planningpermission #planning #retirementliving

Avneesh Bains and Kerryn Penn from our Bedford and London offices recently had the opportunity to attend the RTPI Young Planners conference in Cambridge. The theme of ‘Connecting Town and Country’ was explored throughout the course of the two days via keynote speeches, discussion panels, breakout sessions and study tours. Kerryn from our London office said “It was particularly interesting to hear the different perspectives of how to address the ever-growing challenge that is balancing urban growth with the preservation and enhancement of the historic and natural environment”. The two days provided a great opportunity for Avneesh and Kerryn to meet other professionals at similar stages in their career. It was also great to see them and the other attendees dressed up in their best for the black tie gala that concluded the end of the first day. Thank you to the East of England Young Planners’ Committee for their organisation of the event. #UrbanPlanning #SustainableGrowth #Cambridge #ypconf2024 #YoungPlanners #RTPI

Update on the Central Bedfordshire Council Call for Sites Consultation Yesterday, Central Bedfordshire Council announced that, due to the recent flooding events and the significant pressure that this has had on the Council’s communication team, the Call for Sites consultation will be postponed by four weeks to ensure that sufficient resources are available to support the process. As such, the brownfield Call for Sites will now start on the 4th of November 2024 and end on 2nd of December 2024 and the full Call for Sites will follow on the 9th of December and will conclude at the end of January. If you have any land interests within the Central Bedfordshire area, now is the time to promote them for development. If you would like any assistance or advice on how to maximise your influence on the Local Plan, please contact our Bedford office at enquiries@dlpconsultants.co.uk or on 01234 832740.

DLP Planning Ltd have been working closely with West Dean Parish Council and local residents of the Forest of Dean to prepare the Forest Edge South Neighbourhood Plan which successfully passed its referendum yesterday. Of those who voted, 88.7% voted in favour of adoption. The Forest Edge South Neighbourhood Plan includes policies which aim to enhance sustainable tourism, minimise the effects of climate change, enhance biodiversity and promote high quality design. The Neighbourhood Plan also designates Local Green Spaces and identifies Non Designated Heritage Assets. Once the Neighbourhood Plan is officially ‘made’ it will form part of the Development Plan and will be used by Forest of Dean District Council when making planning decisions. #planning #neighbourhoodplanning #environment
