Plans to change the use of a Victorian dwelling from a C3 (dwelling) to Class E (dental practice) are to be considered by Gedling Borough Council planners following a planning application submitted by Mr. Ian Storm of Storm Design acting as agent on behalf of Mr. Tamang of TMG Properties of Sherwood.
The change of use refers to 870 Woodborough Road, Mapperley, Nottinghamshire, NG3 5QQ.
A supporting statement provided in support of the planning application states that the proposal is to open a new Dental practice within the existing building, by the refurbishing and fitting out of the existing Victorian dwelling, to expand the offering of Dentistry provision within Mapperley and the surrounding area.
The planning application states that the proposed development will not add/remove any parking spaces.
The supporting planning statement further states that the owner of the premises operates as a Dentist for a very well-established dental practice and has been providing outstanding dental care for the local community for over eight years.
The application states that regeneration of the premise, will predominantly be focused on the modernisation of the interior of the building with minimal changes externally. (The only main external consideration will be proposed in a separate application, will take into consideration the councils and the neighbours’ thoughts on the size and location of any signage for the business.)
The application also concludes that approval of the application will allow the creation of a new surgery that will allow the employment of new dentists and hygienists as well as additional support staff. Both expanding local employment opportunities and offering the local and extended community to access essential dentistry in a location with good access links.
