Planning application

170 Hurst Grove Bedford Bedfordshire MK40 4DS

Awaiting decision Bedford 26/01994/HPN

Works: Extension Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Prior notification for single storey rear extension(s) between 3 and 6 metres depth. This is not a planning application because it relates to development that is permitted by Government Regulation. It will not therefore be reported to the Planning Committee but considered by officers under delegated powers. Only objections from adjoining neighbours can be considered.

    T1 - Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) - Prune out all broken and damaged branches resulting from the recent limb failure.
