To receive information on the outcome of an appeal made against a refusal of Planning Permission for the erection of a dormer bungalow.
(Report attached)
Minutes: The Committee received an item of information in relation to the outcome of an appeal against a refusal of Planning Permission, made by Officers under delegated authority, namely:
Planning Application 2012/257/FUL Erection of a Dormer Bungalow
Members noted the Inspector’s decision to allow the appeal on the basis that it was consider that the dwelling would not materially obstruct views of soft landscaping or wider views to the east of the development site nor result in incongruous development in relation to other recently permitted back garden development a short distance along Evesham Road. The Inspector had also considered that obscure glazing on windows proposed for the north facing elevation of the dwelling would resolve any issues of unacceptable overlooking impact on nearby dwellings.
The Committee was pleased to note that the Inspector had, at the Borough Council’s request, imposed a number of Conditions in allowing the appeal, as summarised below:
1. Development to commence within 3 year. 2. Samples of materials for external surfaces to be submitted and approved 3. Plans approved defined. 4. Parking area to be surfaced, laid out and drained in accordance with details to be submitted and approved. 5. Plan showing slab levels relating to a fixed datum point to be submitted and approved. 6. Landing and bathroom windows to be obscurely glazed in perpetuity. 7. Working hours during construction period to be restricted. 8. No burning on site.
RESOLVED that
the item of information be noted.
