[To consider the planning application]

The Committee considered a report regarding application 17/00586/FUL, a two-storey side and rear extension, single storey rear extensions, Juliet balcony and porch to front elevation, and a new hipped roof.

Mr Paul Bowater addressed the Committee and spoke in opposition to the application.

Mr Dhaliwal addressed the Committee and spoke in support of the application.

Councillor Wendy Thompson stated that Foley Drive was a very attractive, popular area, largely due to the spacious gardens and large distance between properties. She was concerned that if more properties undertook similar extensions, this attractive characteristic would be lost. It was acknowledged however that the proposed plans had been reduced since the last planning application in April 2017. 

Resolved:

That planning application 17/00586/FUL be granted, subject to the following conditions:

• Matching materials.
• No additional windows or other form of opening above ground floor level shall be introduced into the side elevations.
