A council has knocked back a planning application for an office scheme that could create 120 jobs because of uncertainty over some of the details.
An investment company wants to build two floors of office space and two floors of underground parking on the site of Britannia House at Ruddington Fields Business Park, just north of Nottingham.
The scheme has been put forward by Planning Hub on behalf of investment company MHG Global Holdings who say it would create 80 new full-time jobs 40 new part-time jobs.
However Rushcliffe Borough Council has invalidated the planning application because of what it says is an issue over the application fee and uncertainty about a flood risk assessment and the description of the development.
Planning was approved for two other office blocks at the start of 2020 which are currently under construction, and the new scheme would be similar in scale and design, but with two floors of subterranean parking underneath.
The planning statement said: "The two new office blocks are intended to accommodate over 200 members of staff, many of which will be new to the company and some of which will be transferred from existing offices within Wellington House, Britannia House and Ruddington Hall.
“The additional office block will provide office space for a further 80 to 100 members of staff, adding to the rapid expansion of the company, for the wider benefit of employment levels within the area.
"The potential increase in vehicles onto Mere Way and the A60 roundabout would not be harmful or severe as a result of the development and would not result in any loss of amenity to local residents or users of the public highway.
“There are no residential properties close to the site that would be affected by this development."
