BRIGG COUNCIL SUPPORTS PLANS FOR NEW HOUSING

Brigg Town Council has been consulted about plans to erect two semi-detached dwellings on land adjacent to 9 Princes Street, which is near the town centre at DN20 8HG.
During it latest meeting, the town authority's Planning & Environment Committee discussed this application and decided to support it.
However, the committee noted "the inadequacies in parking in this area."
It wished to "ensure the highways recommendations and design statement are taken into consideration and enforced in the conditions."
Those views have now been passed on to North Lincolnshire Council, which will decide the application in due course.
Coun Ann Eardley told Brigg's planning session that she wondered where residents of the properties were going to park.
Coun Sharon Riggall supported extra housing in the town but said the car parking issue should be mentioned.
Coun Jane Kitching added: "It is a busy road."
At its latest meeting, Brigg Town Council's Planning & Environment Committee raised no objections to an application seeking approval for a single-storey ground floor extension to the rear, a porch to the front, and internal alterations at 5 Winston Way, DN20 8UA. This is a cul-de-sac off Churchill Avenue.
North Lincolnshire planners will decide this application at some future date.
