Planning committee
Decided by West Suffolk Development Control Committee on 1 Jul 2026.
Approved unanimously
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the site’s location and brownfield reuse outweighed conflict with countryside housing policy.
- The town council supported the proposal, and one neighbouring property supported it subject to retaining trees, hedges and ground levels.
- The committee voted unanimously to grant permission subject to conditions.
