PLANS to change a garage into a hair salon have been given the go ahead.

The site is located on Park Road in Low Moor.

A planning report said: "The application includes limited information about car parking and the number of staff/customers.

"However, the application refers specifically to a hair salon in the garage and the plans show what will be a very small salon - limited to only part of the garage and probably accommodating just one chair, or one customer at a time. Most likely by appointment."

"The use is likely to be of very limited scale that will, similarly, not be noticeable to neighbours. Adverse effects on amenity are highly unlikely given the nature of the use and its very modest scale."

It added: "The street does not display any significant traffic issues.

"Limited extra parking arising on the kerbside from small numbers of customers/clients is not likely to have any unacceptable highway safety impact given prevailing traffic conditions at the site."

The application was approved with conditions: that the permission is for a hair salon only; that it's restricted to the floor space shown in the plans and restricted to the hours of 9am to 8pm.
