Minutes:
Proposal: Erect roof extension forming second floor to form self-contained flat, install lift shaft and external staircase to side elevation, layout additional parking spaces and cycle store (Amended Proposal).
Applicant: LSM
Agent: Stone Me
Mr Hawkins spoke as an objector to the application.
Resolved:-
That PLANNING PERMISSION be REFUSED for the following reason:
The development proposed by reason of its size, siting and overall design would result in a poorly designed, incongruous and obtrusive development that would result in material harm to the character and appearance of the host building, the street scene and the wider surrounding area. The development is therefore unacceptable and contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework (2019), Policies KP2 and CP4 of the Core Strategy (2007), Policies DM1 and DM3 of the Development Management Document (2015) and the Design and Townscape Guide (2009).
