Planning committee

Decided by Bolsover Planning Committee on 18 Feb 2026.

Approved

As officers recommended.

  • Officers advised approval because the five-year temporary use would allow the playing-pitch need to be assessed and prevent permanent loss.
  • Sport England objected to further loss of playing field, while no neighbour comments were received and other consultees raised no objections.
  • The committee voted to refer the application for approval, subject to conditions controlling restoration, use, structures and noise.
