54 20/03704/FUL - Land adjacent 1 Lovers Walk PDF 192 KB
Minutes:
The Committee received an application for
full planning permission.
The application sought approval for demolition of existing car port and storage
area and erection of 1no. dwelling and associated curtilage.
The Committee received a representation in objection to the application
The representation covered the following issues:
i.
Objected to the proposal as the
area was already densely populated with a couple of dozens of households within
25m of the proposed property. The addition of another household with a car
parked outside would not be a benefit to the area.
ii.
There was no designated car park
for the new dwelling contrary to requirements.
iii.
On the Site Block Plan - Proposed
and Existing the current depiction of the border with 72 Humberstone
was not correct.
iv.
The proposed property encroached
into the small garden and would do so even more when taking into account the
excavation work necessary to lower the land and to put in foundations. It also
protrudes into the garden of 70 Humberstone Road
beyond the line defined by 1 Lovers Lane. The foundations and excavation work
needed to be completely on the land of number 7 so it should not be possible
for the building to protrude as it did in the drawings.
v.
Found it problematic the plans
lacked external dimensions.
vi.
The height of the property would
have a great impact on the amenity of the surrounding gardens. The plans showed
that the land would be lowered to allow for the new property. Queried the
effect on 70, 72 and 74 Humberstone Road. The
external width and length of the property was needed to understand how the
property and its foundations would fit on the land of number 7.
vii.
Reclaimed bricks should be used on
any new property so that it was in keeping with the surrounding area. The
current building was built with old Cambridge bricks.
Franco Montecalvo (Architect) addressed the
Committee in support of the application.
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’s report, subject to:
i.
the planning conditions set out in
the Officer’s report; and
a. boundary
treatment
b. materials
c. the
removal of householder permitted development rights for use classes A, B, C and
E;
d. landscaping
requiring a separate walkway for accessibility; and
iii.
delegated authority to officers,
in consultation with the Chair, Vice Chair and Spokes, to draft and include an additional
informative relating to the Party Wall Act.
