Issue - meetings

The Committee considered an application for the erection of new attached garage following demolition of existing garage. Formation of side-facing first floor level windows (part-retrospective) (further amended plans rec'd 29.07.2021 and further amended description 29.07.2021).

Councillor I Johnson, Ward Councillor, attended the meeting to speak on the item and explained that he had originally called it before the committee due to concerns around overdevelopment. Since doing so the Planning Officer has clarified a number of points for him and he thought the report made it clear that this was not overdevelopment and that conditions 4 and 5 were very helpful. He commended the Planning Officers for such a clear report on the application.

The Chairman commented that condition 6 was reassuring as the new building must be used as a garage.

RESOLVED

That planning permission be GRANTED subject to the recommended conditions.
