A planning application reference 23/01702/F has been submitted to the Local Planning Authority and can be viewed online using the Reigate & Banstead Planning Search.
Background
The regeneration programme is part of a commitment that both Reigate & Banstead Borough Council and Surrey County Council made in 2013 through a Preston Regeneration Joint Statement of Intent. The Statement of Intent commits both Councils to work in partnership to improve life for residents in Preston.
The overall proposals for improvements to the Preston estate were approved by the Council's Executive (ModernGov) on 19 April 2012.
