MKA Planning has successfully obtained a Certificate of Lawful Development for a private client.

MKA Planning submitted substantial evidence showing that since acquiring the Factory Shop in 2008 the Applicant has significantly increased the type and  variety of  retail goods that were being sold from the premises. The Council now accept that these goods had been sold for over 5 years and are immune from enforcement.

We successfully obtained a Certificate of Lawful Development (CLEUD) for the retention of this retail use and this is now an authorised use within the property.

There are benefits in gaining a Certificate of Lawful Use or Development. It is a determination that has legal status providing certainty to prospective developers and purchasers of land and buildings.

Certificates of Lawful Use or Development will be particularly beneficial to those participating in the housing market. Solicitors representing purchasers of, for example, extended dwellings, will usually require documentary evidence that extensions such as conservatories are lawful. This evidence may assist with the sale of property.

If you have an unauthorised use that has been operating for over 5 years without planning permission contact Matt or one of the MKA Team at 028 71311551 to discuss your options in regularising your situation.
