Repairs and redecoration of timber windows, brickwork repairs, alterations to rainwater goods and all other associated works (amended).

The Executive Director for Economic Growth and Neighbourhood Services submitted a report on the above application. 

Comments were received and considered.

The Committee noted that this application was only for like-for-like repairs to window sills and casements at this Listed Building but asked for further information from the Council’s Education Service, in light of the Climate Emergency, on how an energy-efficient, environmentally-sustainable approach was being developed for replacements of, or secondary glazing to, single-glazed windows in heritage asset schools.

Resolved –   

(1)      That listed building consent for application 211433/LBC be granted, subject to the conditions and informatives as recommended in the report;

(2)      That further information be provided on the principles being established for schools when window replacements were needed, particularly in relation to environmental standards and sustainability.
