The Committee received an application for full planning permission.

 

The application sought approval for the erection of new dwelling following demolition of existing dwelling on the site.

 

The Committee received a representation in objection to the application from Ms Campbell.

 

The representation set out the following specific concerns:

     i.        Development out of scale with neighbours.

    ii.        Application’s ridge height should be the same height as neighbour’s.

   iii.        Sense of enclosure.

  iv.        Visually dominant design.

   v.        Design out of character with the area.

  vi.        Loss of amenity.

 vii.        Overshadowing.

viii.        Loss of light.

 

Mr Thompson (Applicant’s Agent) addressed the Committee in support of the application.

 

Councillor Avery (Trumpington Ward Councillor) submitted a written representation to the Committee about the application as he was unable to attend in person.

 

The Committee:

 

Resolved (by 6 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.
