What withdrawal means

The process from here

The applicant withdrew this application before the council decided it, so it carries no planning weight and no fee refund is automatic. Withdrawal often follows officer feedback that a refusal was likely.

The applicant is free to submit a revised application at any time, and many withdrawn schemes return in amended form, so the site is worth watching if the proposal affected you.

About prior approval applications

How this application type works

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.

    91 Chester Street Aston Birmingham B6 4AE

    The proposed development comprises the breaking-up, and removal of part of the existing brick paviour hardstanding located within the curtilage of the established industrial warehouse, to facilitate its continued and improved use in connection with ongoing business operations. The works are limited solely to part of the external hard-surfaced area and do not involve any alterations to the footprint, scale, height, massing, or overall extent of the principal buildings on the site. No changes are proposed to the built form of the warehouse or associated structures, and the development will not result in any increase in floorspace or intensification of built development. The proposal therefore represents a minor operational change within the site boundary, maintaining the existing character and function of the property.
