Planning committee
Decided by Three Rivers Planning Committee on 10 Sept 2026.
Approved unanimously
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the kiosk and sign were not considered harmful to the building, streetscene or neighbouring amenity, with restricted operating hours.
- Speakers raised concerns about visual impact, noise, location, maintenance, lack of benefit and unnecessary illuminated signage.
- The committee unanimously approved the kiosk and advertisement consent, amending one condition and adding a separate signage-hours condition.
