PARISH councillors at Appleton have cleared the way for extensions at the Appleton Primary Care surgery in Dudlow Green Road, despite concerns about parking and the appearance of the building.
The final decision will be made by borough council planners, but the parish council has raised no objections.
A number of residents attended a meeting of the parish council’s planning committee to support the scheme, which will increase the number of surgeries from two to three and provide an improved pharmacy.
Some councillors – while not opposing the scheme – expressed concern that the single storey front and rear extensions would cause problems.
At the rear, it could take up valuable parking space and at the front it would result in the surgery building protruding in front of the building line of neighbouring shops.
But the committee voted 4-3 to raise no objections nor concerns.
