Re: Planning Applications
 

Have you had a good look at the enforcement notices kate, how many are served on householders, where the council know they will win, its all down to what it will cost the council if they loose, its just the same with appeals, mind don't think HBC has a very good record, they have lost a few of late ;)

Re: Planning Applications
 

Think you may be correct ... allow for objections, etc.. :D

Did notice was constructed of fibre glass .. surprised me ... there again not a builder so is probably quite normal.

Re: Planning Applications
 

I think most of these domes are constructed of fibre glass, but still a fairly large mass screwed/bolted to a built up felt flat roof probably with a decking of stramite board that is not designed to take that sort of load, think of the wind blowing against the dome, trying to rip it off its mountings......then again they may have used "wood screws" to fasten it down, designed to fly off in a strong wind to prevent damage to the roof of the "tank room" ;) please don't ask how I know it's the tank room roof :D

Re: Planning Applications
 

See HBC are dragging theyre feet updating applications.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Aye their festive break must continue in to Feb, no planning committee meetings until early Feb either, kate what you going to do to fill your time in, no applications.
On a brighter planning front there must be changes afoot on the website, just been talking to a friend that does planning application drawings, still uses the old drawing board. He has been told by planning that they will require all his drawings on CD, he asked why..........its for the website.
Think about that kate soon (lol) we will be able to look at the drawings attached to planning applications...........what progress :mosher:

Re: Planning Applications
 

That'll keep us busy. Got a nod 12 months ago this was going to happen ... hope it does now.. :mosher:

Re: Planning Applications
 

The information is recent like today, it will increase cost for the person wanting the drawings done, unless the drawings are done in Cad on the computer, then it's easy to pdf them. As you say it will be more interesting viewing the plans. BwD have had this facility on their site for a few years now. :cool:

Re: Planning Applications
 

You two are planning junkies:D:D:D

Re: Planning Applications

Re: Planning Applications
 

Have the Hill Top plans been ammended to include pitched roofs or are they as shown in Observer? :confused:

May be they have stopped the "search pages" because of the proposed alterations to the website :confused:

Re: Planning Applications
 

Don't know about the detailed plans of Hill Top, Park ... only what is shown on the site. Will be interesting to see what objections will turn up from local residents this time. Not on the agenda for tomorrow's planning meeting.

Main one there is the Lonsdale Street development (ex Spring Hill Club) .. makes heavy reading if you want to look.

Thought that about the search pages myself, but from July ???

Re: Planning Applications
 

Ah, so that was why they couldn't complete it for the 31st Dec deadline. It was down to the weather, unable to get to the postbox to submit the planning application due to snow :D
