Newport planning application re-submitted after refusal
The applicant has applied for a Certificate of Lawfulness of Existing Use for a property on Cardiff Road, Newport, which includes a dental laboratory, two flats, and a two-bed house in multiple occupation (HMO). The application was refused on January 9, 2025, due to insufficient evidence proving continuous use of the property in this manner for over 10 years. Now, the application has been bolstered with additional documents and declarations, aiming to demonstrate the property's continuous mixed use over more than a decade. The property, located opposite the Royal Gwent Hospital, features a dental practice on the ground floor, a two-bed HMO and a self-contained attic flat on the first and attic floors, and a self-contained one-bed flat in the basement, which is accessed from the rear. The application includes statutory declarations from the applicant and a number of current and former tenants, as well as historical documents such as tax forms and telecom letters confirming continuous residential occupation. The property has a planning history dating back to 1996, when permission was granted for the use of a room as a dental laboratory. Further permission was granted in 2012 for the retention and use of the ground floor as a dental laboratory and clinic. The application also includes a site location plan, detailed planning drawings, and photographs to corroborate the internal and external layouts. Supporting statements from various residents have also been included. These are from the resident of the attic flat since 1999, and three previous residents of the basement flat since 2008. The two residents who have both lived in the two-bed HMO since 2002 and 2020 respectively, have also provided supporting statements. The application concludes that sufficient evidence has been provided to satisfy the burden of proof for the grant of a Certificate of Lawfulness. A decision letter is yet to be included in the documents.
