North Yorkshire Society of Architects have invited Steve Hesmondhalgh, from AMS Planning, to discuss what’s next for Class Q and other potential changes to permitted development rules in rural areas.
The government is to introduce yet more significant changes to a whole range of permitted development rights.
Among the radical changes are a further increase in proposed numbers from Class Q, the introduction of rights for ‘rural’ buildings - not just agricultural buildings - and the introduction of these PD rights in Conservation Areas, AONB’s, and even National Parks.
Steve will cover just a few of these planned changes and discuss the implications for rural clients, planners and architects, and the countryside.
