The following applications are recommended for refusal
DM/2018/0007 Magistrates Court & Police Station redevelopment, Tudor Street. The Town Council reviewed the amended plans recently submitted by the applicant. The Town Council welcomes the changes to the exterior of the building and the different use of colour and materials and this in part has addressed initial objections regarding the external appearance of the development. However, the amendments have not addressed our original concerns regarding the nature and scale of this development being out of character with the area and contrary to LDP policies DES1 and HE2. Therefore, the objections submitted in February 2018 are still valid and we would recommend refusal.
4. Any other business
No AOB
