the demolition of the existing garage of No.1 Redfern Close) to increase to a1
x 4-bed dwelling incorporating a rear dormer.
Councillor
Todd-Jones (Ward Councillor for Arbury) addressed the Committee regarding the
application and made the following comments:
i.
Questioned the impact on the amenity of neighbours.
ii.
Additional parking would have an impact on highway
safety.
iii.
The application contravenes Local Plan 57B.
iv.
Area is a quiet residential street and a large
property would be out of keeping.
v.
House would lend itself to shared living.
vi.
Would have a detrimental impact on neighbours.
vii.
Consultation process out of date and was looking at
a previous iteration of the proposal.
viii.
Floor plans and internal dimensions were not
available on the website.
The Planning Officer provided additional information regarding the
consultation process. Neighbours had been consulted on a five
bedroom proposal and it had not been necessary to re-consult as the
current design was smaller.
Councillor Smart was concerned that there was a step to access a bedroom
very close to the top of the stairs. He asked that his concerns be noted
although this was a building control matter rather than a planning concern.
The Committee:
Resolved (by 5 votes to 1) to grant the application for planning permission in accordance with the Officer recommendation, for the reasons set out in the Officer’s report, and subject to the conditions recommended by the Officer.
