Four developments which were knocked back at a mammoth council meeting in Manchester last month are set to be put to a vote again this week. The applications - which include a new Lidl in Chorlton, retirement flats in Didsbury and student halls in Ardwick - are back on the planning committee's agenda.
It comes after the meeting - which lasted more than three and a half hours - saw the £294m redevelopment of the Great Northern Warehouse approved. Plans for a six-storey eco-friendly office block in Didsbury and emergency homeless accommodation in Ardwick were also given the green light.
But plans to bring student accommodation back into use and a proposal to build retirement apartments were rejected. Plans for new courts at a tennis club in Didsbury were partly approved, but the committee asked for more information to address local concerns about some courts being too noisy.
