Minutes:
The Committee received an application for full
planning permission.
The application

The Committee received a representation in objection to the application
from a local resident.

Substantial and permanent effect
on neighbour’s amenities.

Overbearing, which
was an issue of concern in previous applications.
b.
The proposed house would be close
to the boundary at the narrowest part of the plot (circa 1m).
ii.
Loss of privacy for son’s bedroom
and living space below through overlooking from Plot 2.
a.
Concern over angled dorma windows as mentioned in previous iterations of the
application.
iii.
Overdevelopment of site, which is
out of character with the area.
Mr Blayney (Applicant’s Agent) addressed the Committee in support of the
application.
The Committee:
Resolved (by 7 votes to 1) 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.
