PROPOSAL:
Erection of a rear dormer window with Juliet balcony and conversion of the property into 3 self-contained flats comprising 1 x 1bed and 2 x 3bed, erection of a rear timber fence and gate to form a private rear amenity space; rear cycle parking and associated forecourt landscaping with car parking spaces and a timber bin enclosure
RECOMMENDATION: Grant planning permission subject to conditions as set out in the draft decision notice.
Andy Bates (Area Planning Manager) outlined the proposal and, with reference to the supplementary report, addressed the issues raised at the site visit. He recommended an additional condition requiring the applicant to submit details of the sub-division and planting. In addition, one of the boundary fences to the front of the site was seen to be in a state of some disrepair and to address that, he felt it appropriate to require further details through condition 9.
Ben Harvey, applicant’s agent, spoke in endorsement of the officer’s recommendation adding that the applicant had addressed minor concerns expressed by local residents. He added that the development which complied with relevant policies and guidance, would offer high quality accommodation and assist with housing shortages within the Borough.
DECISION: Planning permission granted as recommended.
