Proposals to convert 292 Tadcaster Road back into a dwelling house were refused at a planning committee meeting today.

The vote was 6-4 with opponents objecting to an extension which formed part of the planning application

There had been no objections to the planning application

The building is currently used as offices by a telecoms company.

Among those voting against the conversion were Labour Councillors who claim that there is no alternative but to build homes on Green Belt land!
