“The scheme is to redevelop the existing piece of wasteland to create nine apartments, creating a focal point at the junction of Crookes Road and Weston View, including car parking.

“The proposal aims to improve the safety and security of the site and provides three, one-bed apartments and six, two-bed apartments.”

Planning officers are considering the application.
