The application had brought about a number of local complaints and there had been long delays with the council failing to determine the application in the normal timescales. Our client was however allowed to continue the car wash use doing that period and as such RCC allowed the application to continue until a new planning officer was able to take of the case and progress could be made. After some brief negotiations the planning permission was granted.
Latest commercial case studies:
Gaigers site
This site was the main warehouse and distribution premises for the Devizes based brewery Wadworth & Co Ltd, containing workshops and stabling for shire horses. RCC became involved in this site to act on behalf of the brewery who intended to reorganise their activities and operations whereby the main site would become redundant as a result.
Nursery
Sixpenny Nurseries have a small group of nurseries in Wiltshire. Their lease in Devizes was ending and new premise was a priority. RCC discussed possible options with them but a number of possible sites raised issues concerning the potential impact of the proposed use on traffic and residential amenity of an area.
Rowdy Cow
RCC was asked by the architects for this job (PKA Architects) to assist them by submitting a planning application for a farm diversification proposal. The proposal, on a dairy farm, was to establish a micro ice cream factory within an existing small agricultural building whilst then building an additional linked building to house a café.
