Search the Public Notice PortalControversial plans to revamp Carrow Road that could see away fans moved next to families have been approved, despite the club saying the project has been paused.
Norwich City insists it will not pursue relocating 3,000 season ticket holders in the stadium without further consultation, following a fierce backlash to the project.
But the club has gained permission for structural changes to the River End stand for this to go ahead.
Canaries bosses had wanted to evict season ticket holders from the lower tier of the River End so they could move away supporters to that area, to allow for more corporate seating in the South Stand and the creation of a fan zone behind the Barclay.
It is the first phase of a four-part project to generate extra revenue and help pave the way to ultimately redevelop the City Stand, the oldest at Carrow Road, to increase the overall capacity to 35,000.
Other changes given the go-ahead by councillors include the installation of a new stair and lift for the South Stand and alterations to the facade.
But details of the scheme drew fierce criticism from fans, with many worrying that away fans would be placed next to where families and disabled people sit, in the Joma section.
Norfolk Constabulary's planning officer also said she had concerns about the plans, prompting "lengthy discussions" during a site visit.
But ultimately, councillors could not consider their views on fans being moved when voting on the planning application and had to instead just consider the structural elements.
The changes were approved at a recent development committee meeting.
What this means for the overall project is unclear.
Club officials have said there will not be any major work carried out before the start of next season but gaining planning permission will give the club the option and flexibility to pursue them in the future.
It has promised to review any proposals to move fans and that it will carry out a consultation before pursuing any changes.
But with the planning permission approved, it could mean the club revives the original plans at a later date.
