The application, from Dowsett Mayhew Planning Partnership, seeks permission to replace 16 of the 18 garages behind a row of shops in America Lane, Haywards Heath.
If approved, a block of six one-bedroom flats will be built in their place, with two studio flats placed over an under-croft area which will hold five cars.
A similar application was refused by Mid Sussex District Council in 2021 but that decision was overturned on appeal to the Planning Inspectorate in 2023.
A statement submitted with the latest application said: “The proposed development would deliver eight new dwellings in a highly sustainable location, making effective and efficient use of a currently under-utilised brownfield site.
“The scheme has been carefully designed to respect and complement the prevailing character of the area while maintaining appropriate relationships with neighbouring properties.
“In addition, it will introduce an active frontage where none currently exists, thereby enhancing both the visual quality of the site and its contribution to the surrounding street-scape.”
