ON THE WAITING LIST: NEW BRIGG HOMES & BUILDING'S DEMOLITION

A Brigg planning application seeking permission to build 67 new dwellings with garages is still awaiting a decision from North Lincolnshire Council after 12 months.
The scheme to build on the former Falcon Cycles factory site, off Bridge Street, was given a "valid date" of August 22, 2017 by the local authority.
The application had been submitted to the council three weeks earlier on behalf of local firm CLS Civil Engineering Ltd.
A number of other local topics mentioned on our blog over recent months also await resolution. They will be on someone in authority's "to do" list, we feel sure.

• Weeks after top dressing various streets on the St Helen's housing estate, the road markings have yet to be repainted.
• The market stalls storage building on Cary Lane still awaits demolition, for which planning permission was granted many months ago.
• The weather vane on the top of the landmark Buttercross in the Market Place - taken down after sustaining damage during high winds - has yet to be reinstated.

Other planning applications awaiting decisions include:

• Erect a detached two-storey dwelling on land adjacent Cemetery Lodge, 30 Wrawby Road (valid date June 6, 2018).
• Proposed link road for land to the east of Atherton Way (March 26, 2018).
• Outline application for residential development, with all matters reserved, Plot 3 Atherton Way (October 26, 2017).
• Erect three dwellings to the rear of 53 Wrawby Street, alongside Cross Street (June 29, 2017).

The agenda for the next meeting of North Lincolnshire Council's Planning Committee, to be held on September 5, has yet to be made public.
Perhaps one, or more, of these Brigg applications will be listed for consideration.

Awaiting demolition: The market stall storage building on Cary Lane. Early in July a spokesperson for the local authority told Brigg Blog: "Before we go ahead with the demolition of the market storage unit on Cary Lane, we are making sure plans are in place for the future use of the land."
