Decision:

APPEAL TO BE CONTESTED

Minutes:

Description of application - Demolition of existing buildings and erection of 8 five bedroom houses with associated works relating to a private road, parking and landscaping.

 

Oral representations in objection to and in support of the application were received at the meeting.

Members having considered the report, objections and representations, RESOLVED TO CONTEST THE APPEAL on the following grounds:-

1  The proposed development by reason of the number of dwellings, their size and layout, the amount of built development and limited private amenity space, would constitute a cramped overdevelopment of the site, out-of-character with the locality and contrary to Policies H7 and BE1 of the Unitary Development Plan and Policies 3.4 and 3.5 of the London Plan.

2  The proposed development would be detrimental to the residential amenities of the neighbouring property at no. 2 Grangewood Lane giving rise to a harmful visual impact, loss of privacy and prospect thus contrary to policy BE1 of the Unitary Development Plan.

3  The proposed vehicular access to the site by reason of its length and limited width would be potentially harmful to vehicular and pedestrian safety, contrary to Policy T18 of the Unitary Development Plan.
