Building and Planning Harmony in Dorset

July 21, 2014 - PRLog -- MC Plan & Site Services Ltd got together with Tanner & Tilley Town Planners last week to host a joint seminar for property professionals.

The event took place at The Kings Priory hotel in Christchurch and saw 80 delegates brave the hot weather to attend.

Peter Tanner, of Tanner & Tilley and Mark Cook from MC Plan & Site Services both spoke on the subject of “Affordable Housing and Renegotiating Planning Obligations” with perspectives on the planning aspect and building regulation obligations.

Mark said: “We are delighted with the event. There is a natural synergy between building control and planning so it was a great collusion.

He added “It was fantastic to see so many regular and new faces attending.  All our seminars are CPD accredited and it’s great for us to host such a worthy networking event for people in the industry.”

Peter Tanner from Tanner & Tilley said: ”These events provide an excellent opportunity for keeping our clients and fellow professionals up to date on changing planning policy and practice.  The high level of attendance is an indication of how highly regarded these events are. “

The next seminar is planned for September by MC Plan & Site services where they will be working alongside a national thermal company, with the date to be confirmed nearer the time.
