Plans to extend industrial site off A16 in Kirton with new £1.2m phase approved
An industrial development situated off the A16 is set to get even larger.
Outline planning permission for phase two of the Kirton Distribution Park has been given the green light by Boston Borough Council.
The authority has also given the thumbs up for the erection of nine light industrial units on the site.
The park is currently home to businesses such as the Duckworth Rover and Land Rover dealership and the Sports Bike Shop, while planning permission has recently been granted for a Domino’s pizza takeaway and a vehicle parts factory.
The phase two site - the Stonebridge Business Park, off Avalon Road - is currently undeveloped 31,810m2 of land, the southernmost section of the overall plot.
“The proposed outline development is on the last plot within the business park as a site allocated for employment uses,” the design and access statement prepared by agent DBL Architectural Design on behalf of Melbourne Holdings said.
“The design of the proposed buildings is considered appropriate for the employment site location, six providing modern and functional employment space.”
The phase two site is currently listed as sold subject to contract for a price of £1.2 million on the Longstaff website.
The BBC planning officer’s report explained: “The proposal is for outline planning permission of industrial development with some matters reserved.
“Access is for consideration at this stage while layout, scale, appearance and landscaping are reserved for future consideration.”
The application for the nine industrial units was also made by Melbourne Holdings.
“The proposal is phase one of an employment proposal,” the design and access statement read.
“This includes nine industrial units towards the northern end of the site, a proposed access road running beyond those units to centre of the site and proposed attenuation pond in the southwestern corner.”
The scheme was originally submitted for seven larger units but has been amended to revise the layout and access arrangements, this has included reducing some of the larger units to smaller units, increasing the total to nine units.”
