Several planning applications for demolitions and developments have been submitted across various locations. In Tameside, plans have been lodged to transform a former police station site into 14 new affordable homes, which Onward Homes aims to complete using modern construction methods. In Royston, the long-closed Alexandra Working Men’s Club has a demolition application pending due to concerns about vandalism and safety. Meanwhile, Sandwell Council is set to decide on the demolition of the former Friar Park Inn in Wednesbury, with plans to replace it with residential and retail space, amid complaints about the site's condition. In St Leonards-on-Sea, a proposal to demolish St Anne’s Mission Church for new housing was rejected over parking and traffic concerns, despite prior approvals for the church's demolition. Lastly, a developer in Newcastle seeks to demolish part of Percy House to redevelop the site, citing outdated facilities.
