Lord Banner KC appeared on behalf of the Generator Group of Companies in a successful planning appeal concerning a major mixed-use development at Horsham Golf Club, following a six-day inquiry in June.The Planning Inspectorate's Inspector Dominic Young allowed the appeal against Horsham District Council’s refusal, granting permission for a Sports and Leisure Hub at Horsham Golf Club, including up to 800 dwellings (280 of which would be affordable housing), a permanent home for Horsham Hockey Club, a new facility for the charity Warren Clark Golfing Dreams, a new home for The Golf College, a remodelled golf course and modern coaching academy, a convenience store and co-working space.The Inspector concluded that the objections, including landscape and transport concerns, were clearly outweighed by the ten benefits summarised (along with the weightings he gave them) at paragraph 62 of the decision.Charles was instructed by David Churchill and Amon Yiu of Carter Jonas, calling expert evidence from David on planning, from Richard Fox on landscape, and from Clive Burbridge (Iceni Projects) on highways and transport.The full Appeal Decision can be accessed here.
