PERMISSION

Description of application – Single storey rear extension and fenestration alterations.

Oral representations in objection to and in support of the application were received at the meeting.  Site photographs taken by the planning officer had been circulated to Members.

On page 15 of the Assistant Director (Planning and Building Control) report, paragraphs 7.2.2 and 7.2.3 were amended to read:-

7.2.2  The main impact of the single storey rear infill extension will be the occupiers of the adjoining property, No.27. No.27 is a detached two storey property with an existing single storey rear conservatory. A letter of objection has been received from this neighbour with their main objections being; the proximity of the infill extension to the boundary, the solid nature of the brick built structure and the impact this will have in terms of preventing daylight and sunlight into their own extension and roof height which will be dominant.

7.2.3  The proposed extension includes a rearward projection of 4.1m along the boundary with No. 27. The extension is set in from boundary with a brickwall providing a small element of relief from the neighbour’s conservatory and the new extension at No.29. As such the proposed extension will project 4.1m from the rear of this neighbouring property with a height of approximately 3.65m. No windows or doors are proposed in the flank elevation facing No. 27 and as such there does not appear to be any issues with regards to overlooking.

Members having considered the report, objection and representations, RESOLVED that PERMISSION be GRANTED as recommended, subject to the conditions set out in the report of the Assistant Director, (Planning and Building Control).
