Theale Golf Centre North Street Theale Reading RG7 5EX
Proposal
Following the closure of the existing driving range outfield due to Health and Safety concerns, it is proposed that in its place a Golf 'POD' is constructed which will feature covered practices bays and a short outfield that will be fully netted (including the roof). To compliment the Golf 'Pod' it is also proposed that a new short game practice area is built, while on the site of the old outfield a dedicated junior practice area, irrigation storage pond and rainwater harvesting basin are constructed. The proposed grading works will be undertaken using soils brought to the site via tipper lorry. An extensive native planting scheme is proposed to increase habitat and biodiversity.

The process from here
This application is with West Berkshire 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 full applications applications
How this application type works
A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.
