A derelict former mental health referral unit in Clifton could be turned into a home under new plans.<\/p>\n
An application to change the use class of the building, in The Avenue, to a flexible residential dwelling has been lodged with City of York Council.<\/p>\n
Plans stated the council currently owns the building but is seeking to sell it and it has stood derelict for a substantial period of time.<\/p>\n
They added further applications for works to refurbish and renovate the building would follow.<\/p>\n
The application to change the use of the building showed three living rooms, a kitchen and dining room on the converted ground floor.<\/p>\n
Six bedrooms would be on the first floor.<\/p>\n
Permission for the works themselves would come as part of a separate application to the submitted plans which deal with the use class of the building.<\/p>\n
Plans stated the building was in a highly-sustainable location near several shops and services a short distance away by foot or public transport.<\/p>\n
The application stated: \u201cThis will provide a good contribution to the overall housing mix to the benefit of local and wider housing objectives, in particular to provide affordable and well-built accommodation for all.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A derelict former mental health referral unit in Clifton could be turned into a home under new plans.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":311797,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[102,1906,6623,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-311796","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mental-health","8":"tag-health","9":"tag-mental-health","10":"tag-mentalhealth","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom","13":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/311796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=311796"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/311796\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/311797"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=311796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=311796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=311796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
