REFUSED

Description of application – Raised timber decking, balustrade and steps to rear.

Oral representations in objection to the application were received at the meeting.  It was reported that the application had been amended by documents received on 23 January 2014.

Councillor Russell Jackson had concerns regarding height, overlooking and ameniety.

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

1.  The raised decking would by reason of its height, depth, width and proximity to the shared boundary  be detrimental to the amenities that occupiers of neighbouring properties, and 16 The Crescent in particular, might reasonably expect to be able to continue to enjoy by reason of loss of privacy and overlooking thereby contrary to Policy BE1 of the Unitary Development Plan.
