Plans for houses to go before committee
Plans for the demolition of industrial units and the construction of seven houses will go before Shropshire Council's planning committee for a second time next week.
An application has been submitted to Shropshire Council for seven houses on land off Washford Road in Shrewsbury.
But a number of objections and a petition against the development were sent to the council.
Shropshire Council's central planning committee deferred the application at its meeting last month for further highways consideration.
The council's case officer Tim Rogers recommended that the central planning committee approved the application at its meeting on June 7.
The application follows permission granted in outline for six houses back in 2016.
This application seeks full planning permission for seven three-bedroom houses set out in a line.
One would be detached and the rest would be semi-detached, while five would have two storeys and two would have three.
Each house would have two parking spaces and there would be a further seven spaced distributed across the site.
The existing road on the corner of Station Road would be retained, while an additional access route would be formed on formed on Washford Road.
The site was formerly a builders’ yard and is now used in connection with a marquee business.
The site also contains modern workshops and lock-up garages. All buildings except the existing garages between the two access points are to be demolished.
