Issue - meetings

[To consider the planning application.]

Having declared an interest, Councillor Hardacre left the meeting room whilst the application was considered and Vice Chair, Councillor Muston, chaired the item.

The Committee considered a report regarding 18/00296/OUT, application to demolish the existing house and erect one house and two bungalows.

Mrs Sharon Stoker addressed the Committee and spoke in opposition to the application.

In response to statements made, Martyn Gregory, Section Leader, Planning, advised the Committee that each application had to be considered on its own merit and the proposed plans would not have an adverse impact on neighbouring properties in respect of privacy, space and noise. He confirmed that a Transportation Officer had been consulted on the application and did not have any concerns.

A Member of the Committee expressed concerns regarding the application, however other Members felt that the proposals were acceptable.

Resolved:

That planning application 18/00296/OUT be approved subject to the following conditions:

• Outline conditions; requiring the submission of the reserved matters
• Floor plans for dwellings

• Demolition and Construction management plan
• Provision of vehicle circulation and parking areas
• Bin stores
• Electric vehicle charging points
• Remove permitted development for roof extensions and additional roof lights to the bungalows
• Implementation of ecology and wildlife enhancement measures

Councillor Hardacre returned to the meeting and resumed his role as Chairman.
