REFUSED

Description of application - Detached two storey two bedroom dwelling.

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

It was reported that the application had been amended by documents received on 7 July 2011.

It was reported that further objections to the application had been received.

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

1  The proposed development would constitute a cramped form of development, out of character with the street scene, conducive to a retrograde lowering of the spatial standards to which the area is at present developed and contrary to Policies H7, H9 and BE1 of the Unitary Development Plan.

2  In the absence of adequate off-street parking and turning area on site, the proposal would lead to parking and reversing on the highway which would lead to a detrimental impact to highway safety, thereby contrary to Policy T18 of the Unitary Development Plan.
