76 Long Acre London WC2E 9JS
Certificate of Lawfulness (proposed)
What is being proposed?
Confirmation of the lawfulness of the proposed use and proposed operating hours of UNIT 1 ONLY. It does not assert that the proposed 24-hour operation has already commenced. The case is that the proposed café use falls within Class E of the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987, as amended, and that no enforceable planning condition identified in the relevant planning history restricts the operating hours of the application premises. Accordingly, the proposed use of Unit/Retail 1 as a café within Class E, operating 24 hours per day, seven days per week, would not constitute development requiring planning permission, subject to the evidence and plans submitted with this application.
