Minutes:
The Committee received an application for
full planning permission.
The application sought approval for erection
of a 2 bedroom end of terrace house.
The Committee received a representation in
objection to the application from Ms Cordaro.
The representation covered the following
issues:
i.
Spoke
on behalf of various residents.
ii.
There
were existing parking and access issues as demand outstripped supply.
iii.
The
application would remove further parking spaces, thus exacerbating the parking
problem.
iv.
People
have already left the street due to parking concerns.
v.
Residents
work from home, so need to be able to come and go without hindrance by
construction traffic (if the application goes ahead). Asked for considerate
contractor conditions to be imposed.
vi.
Taking
out the drop kerb would cause issues.
Mr Strauss (Applicant’s Agent) addressed the Committee in support of the application.
Councillor Smart
proposed amendments to the Officer’s recommendation to include considerate contractor
and car club informatives. The Planning Officer also suggested including an
informative to request a contact to whom parking concerns could be reported.
The amendments were 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 conditions recommended by the
officers with the following informatives:
-
INFORMATIVE: “Considerate
Contractors: New development can sometimes cause inconvenience, disturbance and
disruption to local residents, businesses and passers by.
As a result the City Council runs a Considerate Contractor Scheme aimed at
promoting high standards of care during construction. The City Council
encourages the developer of the site, through its building contractor, to join
the scheme and agree to comply with the model Code of Good Practice, in the
interests of good neighbourliness. Information about the scheme can be obtained
from The Considerate Contractor Project Officer in the Planning Department
(Tel: 01223 457121).The developer should also ensure that the contractors
details are provided to residents of Campbell Street so that they have the
means to contact contractors in the event of issues arising such as obstruction
of the highway.”
-
INFORMATIVE: Car Club: The
applicant is encouraged to ensure all future tenants/occupiers of the dwelling
are aware of the existing local car club service and location of the nearest
space.
