REFUSED

Description of application - Demolition of 258 Southlands Road and erection of 2 dwellings with detached garages (at rear of Nos. 254 - 260 Southlands Road) and associated access road. OUTLINE APPLICATION.

It was reported that the plan attached to the Chief Planner’s report was incorrect.

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

 1.  The proposed development, by reason of the amount of site coverage by buildings and hard surfaces result in the cramped overdevelopment of the site which would be out of character with the surrounding area, contrary to Policies BE1 and H7 of the Unitary Development Plan.

  2.  The proposed access road between Nos. 258 and 260 Southlands Road would give rise to an unacceptable loss of amenity to neighbouring properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance arising from its use, contrary to Policies BE1 and H7 of the Unitary Development Plan.

(Councillor Peter Dean wished his vote for permission to be recorded.)
