REFUSED AND ENFORCEMENT ACTION TO BE TAKEN

Description of application – Retrospective planning application for a glazed screen located under an existing canopy, creating an external storage area.

Oral representations in support of the application were received at the meeting.

Members having considered the report, objections and representations, RESOLVED that the application BE REFUSED for the following reasons:-

1  The proposed additional floorspace and increase in the capacity of the building constitutes inappropriate development within the Green Belt, harmful to its openness and character and no very special circumstances are considered to exist to warrant the setting aside of normal policy considerations.  The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy G1 of the Unitary Development Plan, Policy 7.16 of the London Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework.

It was FURTHER RESOLVED that ENFORCMENT ACTION BE AUTHORISED to remove the structure.
