ERECTING a 20 metre 5G mast in Slough moves one step closer to fruition is just one of many planning decisions or applications submitted to local authorities in Slough, Windsor, or Maidenhead this week.
To view more details for each application, go to the respective council’s planning portal with the reference number attached.
Planners move one-step closer to erecting a 5G mast at Gresham Road Streetworks, Gresham Road, Slough Trading Estate, Slough (X/00210/000).
Developers CK Hutchison Networks UK Ltd moves closer to placing a 20 metre high monopole with six antennas and four equipment cabinets after they were granted prior approval, meaning the council agreed with the plans in principle.
The location has been identified as being necessary for its business development and meets its specific technical and operational requirements.

The network operator wants to install its equipment at the trading estate and to upgrade its network and provide 5G coverage to the local area.

Plans submitted to construct four new homes on land to the rear of 33-43 Baylis Road, Slough (P/08499/007).
Developers have submitted a scheme to erect four three-storey terraced homes, which all have three bedrooms, with landscaping, cycle store, and changes to the pedestrian access route and entrance between No’s 39 and 41 Baylis Road.
A total of eight cycle parking spaces as well as eight car parking spaces are proposed.
In the design and access statement, it states: “The development will allow this unused and forgotten back land site to be brought back into use as a sustainable, relevant and important development site family dwellings.

“The proposed buildings are ’good’ neighbour to adjacent buildings by minimising loss of daylight or overlooking.”
Slough Borough Council planning officers will decide whether or not to approve the scheme.
Grocers withdraw plans to convert the store into a hot food takeaway at 40A Oldfield Road, Maidenhead (21/02528/FULL).
Oldfield Food and Wine wanted to change its use from a retail shop to a hot food takeaway and install a chimney extractor.
However, the owners withdrew their plans on November 24.
The Maidenhead Civic Society objected to the scheme and took concern over the “poor” drawings, the “unclear” internal layout, the site’s handwashing facilities, and reducing the parking spaces from six to zero.

Martin McNamee, chair of the planning group, said: “Consequently, we have concerns about the proposed change of use until more details are provided to illustrate how the takeaway will function without any detrimental impact on neighbours, traffic, and food hygiene.”
