Proposal Description: Item 15: Single storey rear extension and two storey side and front extension with associated internal works. External landscaping works with garden office
The application was introduced. During public participation, Fiona Harwood (also on behalf of Alison Henry and Chris Henry) spoke in objection to the application and Claire White and Jeremy Tyrrell spoke in support of the application and answered Members’ questions thereon.
Councillor Morris spoke as Ward Member. In summary, Councillor Morris raised the following points:
· Balcony still results in overlooking to properties at 42 and 46 Stockers Avenue.
· The urban design assessment of the previous application identified overlooking issues within the bounds of this application. Suggested the application be deferred until an urban design assessment had taken place.
· Landscaping indicated for the front of the house within the urban design assessment would not be in keeping with the character of the area.
· Following the illustration provided by the objector, the design drawing submitted on 7 March 2024 indicated that the office building would have a second storey and therefore this should be formally disregarded from the report.
The Committee proceeded to ask questions and debate the application.
RESOLVED:
The committee agreed to grant permission for the reasons and subject to the conditions and informatives set out in the Report.
