Summary
The application proposes removing the existing terrazzo floor inside York Railway Station. A new natural stone surface would take its place. The station is a protected old building in York's historic centre. The protected taxi kiosk is about a 1-minute walk away, as is the Royal York Hotel. The choice of stone, pattern and method of fitting could affect the station's historic fabric and appearance. The application documents listed here do not include the expected reports about those effects.
What you can do
You can comment to City of York Council using reference 26/01368/LBC. Explain any concerns about the stone, floor pattern, fitting method or effects on the station's historic features. The council can consider planning issues, but not private disputes or changes to property value.
