The application follows the public exhibition held in July this year. The vast majority of public responses given at the time supported the plans.
It also follows pre-application discussions with council officers and revisions following public comments.
There will now be a three week consultation period when anyone can put forward their views on the plans on the council website. Construction could begin in the spring.
The plans will be online at http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/PLANTECH/DCWebPages/AcolNetCGI.gov in the next few days. Search for Biggleswade.
