Retrospective Decking and Disabled Access

The client contacted Planning By Design after receiving an enforcement notice for decking and disabled access which had already been built. Following a planning appraisal with one of our chartered town planners, it was determined that although retrospective planning permission is required, the project was feasible. One our chartered architects prepared the required architect drawings showing the property before and after the decking and access were built. Following approval of the architect drawings, one of our chartered town planners prepared the required design and access statement, to justify why the planning authority should approve the retrospective application. With the clients approval we have now submitted the application with all the drawings and supporting evidence. Planning permission has now been approved for both the decking and disabled access, which means the client will not be required to put the property back to its original state.
