Application progress
Approved on 12 Aug 2026 · Last checked 11 Sept 2026
Planning committee
Decided by High Peak Development Control Committee on 10 Aug 2026.
Approved
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the works supported an economic use, fitted the street scene and caused no harmful overlooking.
- Residents objected to the retrospective application, privacy impacts, parking, the staircase’s appearance and possible future use.
- The committee approved the application with conditions, adding a requirement to reinstate the wall beside the front garden.
