Why ELG Planning

As a practice we perform a variety of roles for our many clients depending on the nature of the brief. We are regularly required to undertake a whole project management role alongside the usual planning reports, whilst some clients just require a planning report or even just the knowledge that we are the end of a phone line should any planning issues arise. We work alongside many other professions during the course of a project and these contacts are essential in providing the level of service we commit to with every project.

ELG Line-UpWithin the team we currently have twelve members of the RTPI and three more working towards Membership.

Working with Warrior Developments, ELG Planning have acted on behalf of WM Morrison Supermarkets PLC to manage planning application submissions for the erection of commercial units within the car parks of 19 of their stores across the UK. The proposals form part of a nationwide programme being implemented by Morrisons to make more efficient use of their supermarket sites by developing complementary services and facilities within the car parks, including drive thru’ coffee outlets, restaurants and other small-scale A1 / A3 / A4 / A5 units.

ELG Planning have worked alongside the multi-disciplinary project team to manage the application submissions across each site in line with the challenging timescales set by the client. The project team have worked to address a variety of planning considerations associated with the respective proposals, including retail policy matters, highways, design, flood risk, contaminated land, noise and land stability issues. Planning permission was secured for the first scheme in November 2018 with development due to commence across all the sites in 2019.

CORE TE AM ELG Planning ELG Planning secured planning consent for a flagship visitor attraction in a

historic park and garden at Wynyard Hall.

The most challenging element of the scheme was the new entry through the wall into the new building – this was designed to be as small as possible and presented a number of build challenges with the overall long term heritage benefits of bringing a listed walled garden back into productive use outweighing the harm to the original wall.

Wynyard Gardens has quickly become an important part of the Tees Valley visitor economy complementing the other tourist attractions in the area.

The project was a multi- disciplinary challenge requiring an experienced team of professional consultants. In this instance planners, heritage architects, chartered surveyors, environmental consultants and a regional builder were involved in delivering the project. ELG were the planning practice commissioned by the land owner and were responsible for bringing the partners together and co- ordinating the planning and listed building consent applications.

ELG Planning, representing the Mandale Group, led on the conversion of a severely damaged and derelict non-designated heritage asset in the form of a Mill. Previous schemes had all sought the demolition of Martins Mill, but ELG (with ELG Heritage) promoted an alternative scheme which retained the original Mill and delivered a viable alternative to the demolition of the site.

Following a pre-application submission in May 2017 a planning application was made in October 2017 with consent granted in February 2018. Work started in April and the scheme was completed to deliver 60 new apartments in November 2018. The whole project not only saved a non-designated asset that would have otherwise been lost, but the whole scheme from conception to completion took less than 20 months.

The scheme not only delivered much needed new housing but saved a non-designated heritage asset from demolition. the building now stands as a reminder of the town history re-purposed for modern living.

ELG Planning were appointed by Barnsley MBC to carry out the Barnsley Town Centre Retail Study to provide a robust evidence base for the Barnsley Local Plan and its associated retail policies.

The Study provided a detailed overview of existing shopping provision within Barnsley Town Centre, updated health check assessments and an analysis of shopping patterns based on a new household survey. The study included a quantitative assessment of the need for additional retail floorspace over the Plan period using a range of scenarios, as well as consideration of potential qualitative improvements to the town centre. The Town Centre Retail Study also assessed the development potential of various sites within the town centre to accommodate new retail floorspace and made policy recommendations in relation to town centre boundaries, primary shopping areas and primary / secondary shopping frontages.

The Town Centre Retail Study forms part of the evidence base for the new Barnsley Local Plan and hearing sessions were held throughout 2017 as part of the Examination in Public process and it is anticipated that the plan will be adopted in late 2018.

accommodation and the addition of a new Category A office building creating 175,000 sq ft of office space, which includes new offices for Peterborough City Council.

ELG Planning have been appointed by Cambridge Investment Partnership (CIP) to provide planning and heritage advice on a range of council owned sites across Cambridge.

CIP are an equal partnership between Cambridge City Council and Hill Investment Partnerships, which has been formed to support the council in the delivery of 500 new affordable homes across the City by developing council owned land and other sites. The sites include car parks, redundant garages along with larger estate redevelopments.

ELG have been appointed to act alongside the project teams to take the sites from initial concept design through the pre-application process and to a detailed planning approval.

Detailed planning approval has been granted for the first four sites in the programme with the others at various stages in the design process.

Acting for Taylor Wimpey (UK) Ltd and Taylor Wimpey (North Yorkshire) Ltd we have promoted land at Rose Cottage Farm in Stainton to the south of Middlesbrough for residential development of 314 houses.

As a practice, ELG Planning achieved planning permission for the first phase of development in 2012 following the resolution of strategic highways issues raised by the Highways Agency. Planning consent for phase 2 followed shortly afterwards. Both of these developments on greenfield land outside of the limits to development were justified on basis that the Council could not demonstrate a 5 year supply of deliverable housing land in accordance with the requirements of national planning policy. Phases 1 & 2 were completed in 2017.

We successfully promoted the final phase through the Council’s Housing Local Plan, attending the Examination in Public and securing an allocation in 2014. Detailed planning approval for the final phase was achieved in early 2016. Works commenced on site in 2017 and are ongoing.
