A PBSA proposal for this site had recently been declined, and an application to permit demolition of the existing building on the site had been submitted.
GPCC, among others, had asked the Council to issue a Building Preservation Notice (BPN). We’ve now received a response from the Chief Planning Officer, David. Mr Givan.
The Council does not propose at this time to serve a BPN.
The ‘proposed demolition’ is held to be ‘development’, ‘not permitted development’ and is so denied. Therefore, the building cannot be demolished at this time’.
A BPN is in abeyance.
