Edgars Limited was appointed by Bower Mapson to prepare a planning statement for 180 residential units, including an extra-care unit, and make a case for residential development on land allocated in the local plan for employment.
By investigating the potential lack of a 5-year land supply, and highlighting the significant benefits of housing over employment including the traffic and design advantages and the local amenity considerations, Edgars Limited was able to identify and give correct emphasis to the arguments and planning balance that led to a successful application.
