Decision:

REFUSED

Minutes:

Change of use from F2 (c) Equestrian sports to Reiki Centre, together with elevational alterations and porch/canopy.

 

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

 

The proposed change of use of the building and surrounding land to a Reiki Centre would be harmful to the openness of the surrounding Green Belt, therefore constituting inappropriate development.  In the absence of any very special circumstances the proposal would be contrary to Policy G2 of the London Plan and Policy 49 of the Bromley Local Plan. 

 

In the absence of satisfactory information to demonstrate to the contrary the proposed change of use would lead to prejudicial highway safety concerns in Westerham Road contrary to Policy 32 of the Bromley Local Plan. 

 

The proposed development would cause undue noise and disturbance as a result of the proposed comings and goings associated with the change of use contrary to Policy D14 of the London Plan and Policies 37 and 119 of the Bromley Local Plan.

 

(Councillor Christine Harris requested that her vote against the motion to refuse permission be recorded in the minutes).
