Ipswich Borough Council received an application to convert a car park to the rear of Oakstead Close to allow space for four storage containers.
However, neighbours have objected to the plans en masse after early objections arose from residents in the area.
Planning documents state the proposal seeks temporary planning permission for valuable' private storage space.

Neighbours previously described the containers as 'just ugly, especially when viewed from Oakstead Close' and raised issue with them being within a local green corridor.
