Hangar Homes tries again at Solent Airport
4th March 2021 10:33 Europe/London
Hangar Homes developer Peter Day is persisting with his plan for Solent Airport by submitting a new planning application for six mixed-use hangars and a heritage hangar/centre.
Peter decided to submit the new application to tackle specific points raised by the planning inspector to his original proposal.
“A legal challenge to the decision to refuse the appeal is risky and hugely expensive if you lose,” said Peter. “So instead I have decided to pursue a new planning application addressing all of the reasons for refusal.”
They are:
Provision of employment use. The whole of the ground floor will be designated as commercial use for aviation-related businesses, exceeding that of the residential use, and increasing the employment density even more than existing airside businesses.
