69A Park Lane application to be decided next week

Last Friday the DC (West) planning committee members visited 69A Park Lane, where the owner is hoping to turn part of the ground floor into a hair and beauty salon and create a second storey for living space. Although the site is in Frampton Cotterell ward, it is close to the boundary with Westerleigh ward and concerns had been raised on both sides, so both Pat and Claire spoke in the slot for local councillors. Residents' concerns included parking, highway safety, the impact on the Green Belt and whether this was the right location for a commercial property.

A decision will be made by the committee next Thursday, 12th March. The meeting starts at 11am and is in Turnberries Community Centre, Bath Road, Thornbury, BS35 2BB. You can read the agenda and the report on this application online.
