PERMISSION

A presentation of the application was given by Planning in which Members were informed that the applicant seeks to address the current Enforcement Notice in place at this property by reducing the two-storey side extension and removing the staircase at the rear of the property.

Planners felt that the proposed alterations would mean a reduction in scale leading to a more positive impact on the street scene. There have been similar changes to neighbouring properties and the changes would have no adverse effects on neighbouring amenities.

In response to a question from a Member, Planning confirmed that, if approved, there would be conditions added regarding timescales for the work. Work would have to begin within four months and be completed within nine months.

Members having considered the Report and representations RESOLVED that PERMISSION BE GRANTED as recommended, subject to the conditions set out in the Report.
