Planning application

Red Cow Farm House, Bedford Road, Houghton Regis, Dunstable, LU5 6JP

Awaiting decision Central Bedfordshire CB/26/00360/NMA Non-material Change to Permission

Works: Demolition Major scheme

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

Non-material amendment to planning permission CB/23/03448/FULL (Revised scheme: Demolition of existing outbuildings whilst retaining the existing dwelling. Erection of 26 dwellings with access road and sewers.) Amendment sought to the wording of condition 3 to remove reference to the works beyond the immediate raised table. This is replaced by a variation of the S106 to add an obligation to pay a sum of £10,000 towards further traffic calming measures on the Bedford Road corridor

As published by the council, reference CB/26/00360/NMA

About amendment applications

An amendment application makes limited changes to a permission that already exists; anything beyond modest adjustment needs a fresh application. More in our guide to planning application types.
