The car parks selected are at St Luke’s House on Lower Harding Street; Abbey House on Abbey Street; St John’s House on St Andrews Street; St Barnabas House on Lower Harding Street; St Mark House on Herbert Street, St Stephen’s House on Grafton Street and Melbourne House on Melbourne Road.
A similar proposal was approved at Woodstock, off Billing Road, last month.

Normally applications on council-owned land are determined by the planning committee, but because of the minor nature of the proposals, councillors are set to delegate authority to the Head of Planning to determine the applications.
The decision to delegate power is set to be made by planning committee on Tuesday evening at The Guildhall.
