Objections pour in over plans to build on top of existing flats

Since the application, 29 objections have been made online and no one has said they are in favour of the development.A resident of Biskra flats condemned the build because he believed it would cause a disturbance to him and other residents.

Another resident said she is against the plans because it does not include car parking and believes the extra floor will result in a “very bulky massing, which will be a large boxy form”.An increase in traffic was also cited by several people as a reason they objected the application. Someone who lives near the block of flats raised concerns about how it would affect the surrounding area and was concerned about “noise pollution” on people who live nearby.

It added: “The design respects the character of the area whilst maintaining existing boundary distances from neighbouring properties.”
