Proposals:  Change of use from dwellinghouse (Class C3) to non-residential education/training centre (Class D1), demolish existing boundary wall, install layout parking and vehicular access onto Prittlewell chase

Applicant:  Ms Eileen Koh

Agent:  Mr Dwight Breley

 

Resolved:  That planning permission is REFUSED for the following reasons:

 

01  The proposed change of use would result in the loss of a single family dwellinghouse and thereby the reduction of housing supply within the Borough to the detriment of the area. No evidence has been submitted demonstrating the need of the proposed educational use in this location and therefore, the proposal is unacceptable in principle and contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework and Policy CP8 of the Southend-on-Sea Core Strategy (2007).

 

02  The applicant has failed to demonstrate that the educational use of the premises would not result in undue noise or disturbance to the adjoining occupiers to the detriment of the residential amenity thereof. This is considered to be harmful to the amenities of the occupiers of nearby residential properties. The proposal is therefore unacceptable and contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework; Policies KP2 and CP4 of the Southend-on-Sea Core Strategy (2007); Policies DM1 and DM3 of the Southend-on-Sea Development Management Document (2015); and advice contained within the Southend-on-Sea Design and Townscape Guide (2009).

 

03  The proposed use would result in an increased demand for parking, which cannot be provided on site. The applicant has also failed to demonstrate adequate traffic movements can be made, and this would be to the detriment of highway safety and efficiency. The development would therefore result in additional on-street parking on a road with limited on-street parking availability and high levels of parking stress to the detriment of highway safety and the local highway network contrary to Policy CP3 of the Core Strategy and Policy DM15 of the Development Management DPD.

 

The Local Planning Authority has acted positively and proactively in determining this application by identifying matters of concern with the proposal and determining the application within a timely manner, clearly setting out the reason(s) for refusal, allowing the Applicant the opportunity to consider the harm caused and whether or not it can be remedied by a revision to the proposal.  The detailed analysis is set out in a report prepared by officers. In the circumstances the proposal is not considered to be sustainable development. The Local Planning Authority is willing to discuss the best course of action and is also willing to provide pre-application advice in respect of any future application for a revised development, should the applicant wish to exercise this option in accordance with the Council's pre-application advice service.
