Warwick planning roundup: Nightclub, McDonald's and Wickes
Here are the biggest planning stories from the last week in and around Warwick.
Nightclub's New Life?
Town councillors have objected to a scheme that would see a Leamington nightclub flattened to make way for more student accommodation.
Ni Ann Ltd has submitted an application to demolish Smack - which remains open for business - and replace it with a five-storey building with "purpose-built" apartments.
The developer claims replacing the Tavistock Street club with 48 bedrooms would be better for the area.
----------
McDonald's Denied
McDonald's has been told it cannot install a new sign for its drive thru on Queensway, with planners describing it as "harmful".
If approved the two-metre tall sign would have sat on a piece of grace between the fast food restaurant and the footpath.
But Warwick District Council planners said the sign - which would be 4.8 metres wide - would be a "very dominant addition".
----------
Wickes' Wishlist
Wickes is set to open a major new store in south Warwickshire after plans to remodel a new industrial unit were signed off by the district council.
The DIY retailer has been given planning permission to remodel the recently completed 'unit A' at Spa Park, Tachbrook Road.
An application to Warwick District Council (WDC) said the 3,591 square metre unit was completed in February 2023, but has had no takers until Wickes decided to move in.
