REFUSED

Description of application amended to read, “Part two/three storey block comprising 7 two bedroom and 2 three bedroom flats with 13 car parking spaces, vehicular access onto Stanley Avenue and Overbury Avenue, detached carports, cycle and refuse stores (amendments to scheme permitted under ref.07/04526)”

Oral representations in objection to the application were received.  Oral representations from Ward Member, Councillor Russell Mellor, in objection to the application were received at the meeting.

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

1.  The additional car parking alongside the south-east flank boundary of the site would be harmful to the amenities of the adjoining residents by reason of the resultant unacceptable degree of noise and general disturbance which would be generated, contrary to Policy BE1 of the Unitary Development Plan.

2.  The proposed development would lack adequate useable and quality provision of amenity space for future occupants of the flats, contrary to Policies BE1 and H7 of the Unitary Development Plan.
