A row over a new home in Ashton involved 'racist behaviour', councillors have heard.
Plans to build a five-bed home had already been given full planning permission on Bowland Avenue last year, but amendments requested later received 17 objections - which meant they were referred to the Planning Committee for a decision.
The amendments included an extra elevation for an office and utility room, the garage to be converted into a bedroom and bathroom, additional ground floor windows, an additional parking space and internal room changes.
