Approved, subject to conditions

The Committee considered application 12/00732/F for the demolition of rear porch and derelict garden outbuildings; construction of two storey rear extension; improved access to existing parking area including covered area; fitting of satellite dish and new shed.

Consideration of the application had been deferred from the previous meeting of the Committee to allow for a formal site visit.

In introducing the report, the Development Control Team Leader advised Members of an email received from the applicant, which had been included in the written update, requesting that consideration of the application be deferred to allow him to address the Committee.

It was proposed by Councillor Blackwell and seconded by Councillor Pickford that the application be determined at the meeting. Members voted unanimously in favour of the motion.

Janet Macey, a neighbour, spoke in opposition to the application.

The committee was satisfied with the evidence presented.

In reaching their decision, the Committee considered the officers’ report, written update, presentation and presentation of the public speaker.
