Summary
This application does not propose new building work. It asks the council to approve the drainage details required by a condition on an earlier permission (MC/23/2669) for two linked blocks of 61 flats with basement parking on New Road. The site sits in a protected historic area of Chatham, close to several protected old buildings on New Road. The area is well connected, with Chatham railway station a couple of minutes' walk away and the Waterfront Bus Station a few minutes' walk. Approving these details is a step towards the previously approved development going ahead. The key question for the council is whether the proposed drainage scheme is adequate for a site of this size.
What you can do
You can comment on whether you think the proposed drainage details are appropriate. The council can only consider matters directly related to the drainage condition — this is not a fresh opportunity to object to the principle of the development.
