Plans to convert estate agent in Hebburn into dog grooming salon
Plans to convert an estate agent into a dog grooming business have been submitted to South Tyneside development chiefs.
South Tyneside Council’s planning department has received an application for 31-35 Station Road in the Hebburn area.
The application from company ‘My Dog Barber’ aims to change the use of the business unit into a dog grooming salon.
Floor plans submitted with the application show how the building would be subdivided if plans were approved.
This includes a reception area, grooming area and bathing area on the ground floor, along with an office, staff area, toilet and kitchen.
Plans for the proposed first floor include office space, a meeting room, a kitchen and a toilet.
An application form submitted to council officials also outlines proposed employee levels for the development, including four full-time jobs and one part-time role.
Meanwhile, opening hours applied for include 8.30am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday and 9am to 5pm on Sundays and bank holidays.
A decision on the planning application will be made once a period of council consultation has concluded.
Comments can be made on the plans, via South Tyneside Council’s planning portal website, until September 19, 2024.
