Planning applications

I've been a little slow this week in getting the information onto the blog about planning applications.

Two to report:

First an application to erect a two storey block of flats "on land adjacent to 48 Crowland Way", which is application 08/1308/FUL. This will be definitely going to a planning committee, and more information can be found in the usual way.

Secondly there is an application for a two storey side and rear extension to 21 Armitage Way. This application is 08/1361/FUL.

See previous planning posts for useful links.

Pavements in Caravere Close

Following a complaint from a local resident I passed on concerns about the state of the pavements in Caravere Cose, in the Armitage Way estate. I'm pleased to report back that the County officer agrees with me and the residents that repairs should be made!

A works order was raised, but it has yet to be carried out. Watch this space (and the pavement)!

Building the substation on King's Hedges Rd

Following a complaint about the noise from the building of the substation on King's Hedges Road (the big metal structure just next to CRC) I arranged a meeting with Mr Hoyle, the project manager, and a resident of the Armitage Way estate.

The good news is that the noisiest part of the construction is now drawing to a close. Mr Hoyle assured us that the use of the air-gun tool will be finishing this week (assuming that the weather holds and no unexpected problems crop up).

It also seems that Mr Hoyle's efforts at passing on the complaints may have had an effect as the resident told us that the noise had reduced.

He is keen to be a good neighbour, so if there are big problems with noise from the site do get in touch and I will pass them on to him.
