Decision details

The Committee received an application for full planning permission.

The application sought approval for demolition of the existing single storey garage and erection of new dwelling to the land r/o 559 Newmarket Road.

The Committee received a representation in objection to the application from a resident of Webster Terrace.

The representation covered the following issues:

       i.          Referred to the reason for refusal for the 561 Newmarket Road planning application: Access located near to a pedestrian crossing.

·       The same issue applied to the planning application for 559 Newmarket Road.

·       Suggested that Highways Authority comments were inconsistent as 559 Newmarket Road was recommended for approval.

     ii.          Commented it was unfortunate the garden of 559 Newmarket Road would not adjoin Webster Terrace as it would affect his outlook.

The Committee:

Resolved (by 7 votes to 0) 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 conditions recommended by the officers.
