Securing planning permission for businesses needing a greenfield site has never been easy in Jersey. It has become even more challenging with the policies provided by the Bridging Island Plan, 2022 and the case-by-case approach that it provides for.

Stephanie is delighted to have secured planning permission for Gorey Boat Yard to establish a new and much needed business to meet the needs of the island’s boating community in a location that is well suited for its purpose.

The boat yard provides much needed storage for the local boat owning community. Stephanie managed and negotiated the terms of the planning permission following an initial first party appeal against the refusal of planning permission and strong neighbour objection.

The business is a shining example of how local entrepreneurship and vision has delivered a thriving business service that meets the needs of its customers and wants to grow. Steedman Planning is delighted to be asked to continue to support this important local business with planning services.
