Broader Planning Applications

The redevelopment on Burnt Oak Broadway is part of a wider collection of planning applications recently lodged with Barnet Council. These applications cover various locations across the borough and include a range of development types. Among the other submissions are proposals for rear outbuildings in Barnet, antenna replacements in Finchley, and tree preservation work in various areas. Other applications include extensions to residential properties in Edgware, Barnet, and London N3, as well as retrospective applications for canopies and changes of use.
