People living on a Mansfield street are divided on whether a a two-storey extension to one of the houses on it should go ahead. Plans have been submitted for an extension to the south western side of a property on Budby Avenue, along with a single storey extension to the rear of the house and the demolition of its garage.
The proposals will be discussed at a meeting of Mansfield District Council's planning applications committee, but concerns have already been raised by some neighbours. The council says it has received objections from two properties as well as a letter signed by 11 people, with concerns including the loss of light for some properties and an "adverse impact on the street scene."
April Troop, 32, is one of those living on Budby Avenue who has no objections to the plans. She said: "I think that they need to do it because they've got a growing family and I think it just makes sense for them.
