Issue - meetings

Proposed single storey side extension.

Councillor Fowler, in relation to Planning Application 18/02001/FUL, had earlier declared a Personal Interest insofar as the Applicants were known to her, therefore she withdrew from the meeting whilst the Committee deliberated on the Application and reached its decision.

It was reported that this Application had been referred to the Planning Committee as the Applicants were Ivan Henderson who was a County and District Councillor and Jo Henderson who was a District Councillor.

Members were aware that this Planning Application was a resubmission of a previous scheme that had been refused by the Committee on 21 November 2018 under Planning Application 18/01693/FUL due to it being contrary to Saved Policy HG14.

It was reported that planning permission would not normally be required for an extension of the proposed size, however, permitted development rights for enlargements had been removed on the original planning permission for the house under condition 12 of planning permission 07/01455/FUL and therefore an Application was required.

The Committee had before it the published Officer report containing the key planning issues, relevant planning policies, planning history, any response from consultees, written representations received and a recommendation of approval.

At the meeting, an oral presentation was made by the Council’s Planning Manager (GN) in respect of the application.

Sharon Wotton, a local resident, spoke against the application.

Following discussion by the Committee, it was moved by Councillor McWilliams, seconded by Councillor Hones and RESOLVED that the Head of Planning (or equivalent authorised officer) be authorised to grant planning permission for the development, subject to the following conditions:

1. Time Limit.

2. Approved Plans.
