Planning committee
Decided by Three Rivers Planning Committee on 27 May 2026.
Approved unanimously
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the revised parking information and local transport links overcame the previous refusal reason.
- The community council and a neighbour raised concerns about parking, appearance, change of use and contamination.
- Members voted unanimously to grant permission, adding Use Class E(f) to the condition restricting the permitted uses.
