Rossendale Borough Council Registers New Planning Applications
Rossendale Borough Council has recently received a series of planning applications, with registrations up to the week ending Friday, March 6. These proposals include various developments across the borough, from householder extensions to changes in property use.
Householder Extension Proposals
Among the applications is a request for a two-storey side extension at 10 Central Avenue in Edenfield, Bury, Lancashire. Additionally, a part two-storey, part single-storey rear extension is proposed at 16 Farrington Road in Bacup, Lancashire. These householder applications aim to expand residential properties to meet the needs of local residents.
Security Fencing and Non-Material Amendment
Another notable application involves the erection of a 2.4-meter-high security fencing system, which incorporates double gates, near an existing bin store building at Bacup Primary Health Centre on Rochdale Road in Bacup, Lancashire. In a separate case, a non-material amendment has been submitted for Moorfield on Alden Road in Helmshore, Rossendale, Lancashire. This amendment proposes omitting a window sill to allow for a full-height window, intended to enhance the visual finish of existing stone detailing on the property.
Change of Use to HMO
A significant application seeks a change of use from a two-storey apartment, classified under Class C3, to a five-bedroom House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) under Class C4 at 9 Market Street in Bacup, Lancashire. This proposal could impact local housing dynamics and community planning in the area.
These planning applications are now under review by Rossendale Borough Council, with decisions pending based on local regulations and community feedback. Residents and stakeholders are encouraged to stay informed about these developments as they progress through the planning process.
