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
Variation of Condition 4 (Occupancy); Condition 6 (Yard restriction); Condition 7 (French doors); Condition 8 (Flat roof); of permission 1/78/422E/FULL, all of which were framed around the building's former operation as a single cafe/bistro business with an ancillary, functionally linked staff flat above. The current proposal (ZD26/00349/FULL) reconfigures the building so that the commercial and residential elements operate as two separate, self-contained uses, each with their own independent access

The process from here
This application is with North Yorkshire 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.
