   Decision issued: Prior Approval Not Required

4. 12 Aug 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

  The erection of a Mongolian Yurt, known as a Ger. 18ft diameter and 10ft height (including the wooden base) to be placed in the well-being garden at The Fen Farm - Sompting Community Farm. The Ger is a wooden framed structure with an outer canvas covering. The aim is for the Ger to be in place all year round to serve as a dry area for volunteers on the farm to gather for meetings and food growing, craft and mindfulness and well-being activities. The Ger is an original Mongolian Yurt that travelled from Mongolia to France about 30 years ago. It has been in situ in Northern France for many years and it has recently been gifted to the charity to be used at the farm. The plan is to restore the Ger to its original splendour. A small solar panel will be ground mounted for lighting. A small ramp will be created for wheelchair access.
