Our client owns a property known as Horeb in Pwllheli which was granted planning approval but subject to a Section 106 Agreement, restricting occupancy to a Local Person. The property itself is a large 3-bedroom house which includes a large fitted kitchen and living room with access to a balcony and stairway to the garden. As the property is of a particular size it was reasonable to assume that it would normally be outside the scope those in need of an affordable home. Owen Devenport were asked to submit an application to remove this occupancy restriction following previous positive results in discharging other local occupancy conditions. We set together a strong case using these previous successes as evidence to justify the impracticality of this condition. We were pleased to let our client know that the Authority had discharged this occupancy limitation leaving our client with a dwelling free from this restriction.
