Search the Public Notice PortalPLANS to turn a former Cowdenbeath pub into flats are set to progress after a tweak to the original planning consent was agreed.
City Hotels Ltd, of Dunfermline, were granted permission to create four flats where the Junction Bar used to be back in March last year.
They later submitted an application to amend the proposals with a request to omit a bicycle store and replace it with mounted hanging racks and rearrange the refuge bin store arrangements.
The agreed access path layout would also be altered while a screen fence and gate are to be erected.
A planning statement for the original proposals had explained that one two-bedroom and three one-bedroom flats were to be created on the ground floor of the former Perth Road pub.
The first floor of the building already includes four flats which are rented out.
Approving the application, Fife Council planners said the amendments were minor.
“These changes would not alter the approved use, scale, form or overall character of the development, would not give rise to any significant new planning impacts, and would not materially affect the conclusions reached in the assessment of the original application,” they said.
“The proposed changes are therefore considered to constitute a non-material variation of the planning permission in terms of section 64 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997, with no express grant of planning permission required.”
