DENTAL PRACTICE APPROVED IN RURAL AREA.
MKA Planning Ltd. have recently obtained planning permission on behalf of our Client for a dental practice at Killycolp Road, Cookstown.
This was a challenging project. The Client wanted a dental practice in the rural area outside Cookstown. His wife was operating an ‘un-authorised’ beauty salon at the application site.
MKA indicated that a straightforward application for a dental practice was unlikely to be successful as the application site only had permission for a garden centre.
MKA devised a planning strategy to get the dental practice approved through initially getting a CLUED Certificate for the beauty salon as a Class 1 Retail Use meaning that the premises could be used as a retail shop in the countryside.
An application was then submitted for the dental practice arguing that this community facility was more appropriate in the rural area and represented a planning gain and also got rid of the lawful retail shop. Planning Service accepted the MKA planning logic and granted permission.
If you have a planning application or are 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.
