Minutes:
The Committee received an application for
full planning permission.
The application
sought approval for roof extension incorporating hip to gable extension
and front and rear dormers, external insulation with rendered finish.
The Committee discussed
the relationship between the proposed extension and the existing street
scape.
The Committee:
Resolved (by 6 votes to 3) to reject the officer recommendation to approve the application.
Resolved (by 8
votes to 2) to refuse the
application contrary to the officer recommendation for the following reason:
The proposed rear roof extension, by virtue of its increased ridge
height, design and materials would unbalance the terrace of properties and
appear dominant and incongruous in the streetscene,
particularly when viewed between the gap in the houses
from the south of the site. The increased height of the building would also
harm the uniform quality of the roof heights on the terrace. The proposal would
be contrary to policies 3/4, 3/7, and 3/14 of the Cambridge Local Plan (2006).
