Planning committee
Decided by Newcastle upon Tyne Planning Committee on 18 Sept 2026.
Refused
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised refusal because all proposed flats would fall short of national space standards.
- No objections were received, while consultees sought further information on parking, drainage, noise, sustainability and refuse arrangements.
- The committee refused permission because the homes would provide substandard living conditions and fail required space standards.
