PERMISSION

Description of application - Part one/two storey rear extension, porch extension and steps to side, raised decking with balustrade at front, elevational alterations and rooflights (PART RETROSPECTIVE)

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

The Head of Development Management clarified that this application sought permission to combine two previous approvals – prior approval had already been granted for an 8m deep single storey rear extension, and separately planning permission had been granted for a part one/two storey rear extension (depth of 5m at ground floor level and 4m first floor). This application effectively sought permission for an 8m deep single storey element on the ground floor with a 4m deep first floor above. It was noted that the proposals for the porch extension and decking were as per previous approvals.

The Chairman noted that a request had been received from Ward Members for the removal of Permitted Development rights to prevent any further development on the site.
