Finding a route to successful (and commercially viable) delivery of development often involves steering a course around planning conditions. In a recent case we had to find a way to enable a client to deliver two adjacent ‘modest’ 9 dwelling planning permissions each with a phasing condition but where the scheme funders needed plot delivery in a particular way. Neither scheme required the other to be built under the planning permission but the council wanted the affordable housing delivered in a timely way. We’ve successfully managed to vary the phasing conditions for our client to satisfy the council, the developer and the funding streams. Great news
