Awaiting decision Cambridge 26/02924/S73 Section 73 - Remove/Vary Condition

Works: Extension Demolition 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

S73 to vary condition 2 (approved drawings) and 4 (green roofs) of ref: 23/00256/HFUL (Single storey side extension, demolition of existing brick shed, single storey detached annexe. Shed to the front of the property) to allow the biodiversity measures to be provided elsewhere on the site and to allow for a concrete pan-tiled roof, matching the appearance of the buildings in the surrounding vicinity.

What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with Cambridge for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

About amendments applications

How this application type works

An amendment application changes a permission that already exists. Non-material amendments cover small adjustments with no wider effect, while minor material amendments, usually made by varying a condition, allow modest design changes without a fresh application. Anything beyond that needs a new permission, so the scope here is deliberately narrow.
