August 2017 - Reserved Matters Approval gained for 183 dwellings on Phase 6 of the Newton Leys development on behalf of Taylor Wimpey.

This Application forms part of the wider Newton Leys development on the outskirts of Milton Keynes and CMYK are pleased to continue their involvement with Taylor Wimpey on this development.

We worked closely with our client, Planning Officers, Highway Officers and other Local Authority consultees to design a scheme that proposes a clear hierarchy of street types and character areas.  The design includes Play Areas and Green Corridors with a more continuous form of development along the Primary Streets and less formal arrangements towards the Parkland Edge.

Planning Consent was granted via Delegated Powers at Officer Level.

Biggleswade Site 3

August 2017 - Reserved Matters Approval gained for 134 dwellings on Parcels 15, 16 & 18 of the Biggleswade development on behalf of Taylor Wimpey.

The Application site is made up of three parcels, two of which front on to the overall development edge and entrance roundabout. We overcame these constraints with a design that allowed for substantial landscape areas between the built form and highways.  The scheme comprises a mixture of houses and apartments, designed to address the Landscape areas and Public Realm.

CMYK have been involved in securing Planning Permissions on a number of parcels on this development for Taylor Wimpey and hope to continue their involvement on future parcels as they come forward.

We would like to thank him for all his efforts and endeavours over the years and wish him the best of luck in the future.

August 2017 - We welcome back Becky Lake from her Maternity leave.  Becky is a Design Manager at CMYK and took a year off following the birth of her daughter Lilly.
