PLANNING can enrage, bewilder, or excite communities and we’ve spotted five plans which might pique your curiosity.
All five are some of the most recent applications submitted to Reading Borough Council’[s (RBC) planning bosses and can be found at http://planning.reading.gov.uk/.
Huge town centre affordable housing plan
41 affordable housing flats could be coming to North Street in the town centre.
Reading Borough Council (RBC) has submitted plans for two buildings of four and five storeys, all at affordable housing rates at the former Reading Family Centre.
Two-storey extension in Norcot
A couple had applied to build a two-storey extension of their home on Drayton Road, Norcot.
The existing house is a semi-detached property from the 1930s.
Extension plan in Caversham
Another couple are also planning an extension, this time a part two-storey, part single-storey side and rear extension in Caversham.
Another extension in the town centre
Extensions are very popular in the town and another one is planned on William Street near both Reading Station and Reading West Station.
Emmer Green extension plan
Another single storey and rear extension is planned in Emmer Green on Rotherfield Way.
