Planning committee

Decided by Liverpool Planning Committee on 28 Jul 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.

Approved

As officers recommended.

  • Officers advised approval because the scheme would reuse vacant brownfield land, provide 48 homes and meet planning requirements subject to conditions and a legal agreement.
  • A nearby business objected over effects on its operations, noise, highway safety, residential amenity and whether highway works could be delivered.
