Building for the Future: Team Lincolnshire Ambassadors Secure Planning Success in Heckington

Paving the way for 47 high-quality new homes to meet the region’s growing housing needs, the project demonstrates the power of combining strategic planning expertise with industry-leading construction. Fytche-Taylor Planning was brought on board to navigate a complex planning process that required resolving significant infrastructure and technical hurdles.

Expert Resolution of Technical Constraints

Securing the "green light" required a meticulous approach to overcome specific technical objections. The Fytche-Taylor team worked closely with technical specialists and the local authority to find a path forward where others might have stalled:

• Proportionate Infrastructure: Fytche-Taylor successfully negotiated with the local authority, ensuring that requirements for off-site highway improvements remained proportionate to the scale of the development.
• Infrastructure Coordination: The team navigated complex capacity objections from Anglian Water, providing the technical coordination necessary to ensure the site’s drainage and utility requirements were proportionately addressed.

A Win for the Lincolnshire Economy

This successful outcome represents a significant investment in the local economy. By bringing forward these 47 homes, Fytche-Taylor and Lindum are supporting the delivery of much-needed housing, creating jobs during the construction phase, and ensuring Heckington remains a vibrant place to live and work.

"This project is a testament to what can be achieved when Lincolnshire businesses work together," says the team at Fytche-Taylor. "By combining our planning insights with Lindum’s construction excellence, we have resolved complex infrastructure issues to deliver a fantastic result for the community."

Championing Regional Growth

As members of Team Lincolnshire, both firms embody the spirit of the ambassador program—driving investment, sharing expertise, and championing the county as a premier destination for development. The Heckington project serves as a blueprint for future residential schemes, proving that with the right partnership and professional strategy, technical obstacles can be overcome for the benefit of the region.
