Relates to ZD26/00349/FULL
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
