26/01110/CPNQ - Change of Use Class Q Prior Notification Awaiting decision

Proposal

Prior notification for change of use from an Agricultural building to a dwellinghouse(s) (Use Class C3) including associated building operations reasonably necessary to convert the building. This is not a planning application because it relates to development that is permitted by Government Regulation. It will not therefore be reported to the Planning Committee but considered by officers under delegated powers. Comments received will be considered but if notification of a decision is not made to the Applicant within 56 days of the date of registration of the proposal, it can proceed. If Officers confirm that the development can proceed, it must be completed within a period of 3 years starting with the prior approval date… Data via plota.co.uk
