Decisions:

The Committee received an application for full planning permission.

Mr McKeown (Applicant’s Agent) addressed the Committee in support of the application.

 

Councillor Herbert (Coleridge Ward Councillor) addressed the Committee about the application.

 

The representation covered the following issues:

       i.          Conditions were required to mitigate the impact of the application on neighbours. The character of Cherry Hinton Road should be considered.

     ii.          Asked that condition 4 be amended to have a 2m high fence on the eastern boundary of the development.

   iii.          People should be mindful of the tree to the rear of no.175 which overhangs the application.

 

Councillor Smart proposed an amendment to the Officer’s recommendation that condition 4 be amended so that appropriate boundary treatment would be chosen due to the amenity of 175-177 Cherry Hinton Road occupants and neighbours.

 

This amendment was carried unanimously.

 

The Committee:

 

Unanimously resolved to grant the application for planning permission in accordance with the officer recommendation, for the reasons set out in the officer report, and subject to the revised conditions recommended by the officers (changing the reason for condition 4 to the following):
