Agenda item

Erection of extension to rear of Public House, including demolition of existing extensions and refurbishment of property. Erection of two dwellings to the rear

Consideration was given to the report of the South West Team Leader  regarding applications for the erection of an extension to the rear of the Public House, including demolition of existing extensions and refurbishment of the property and the erection of two dwellings to the rear (for copy see file of Minutes).

The South West Team Leader gave a detailed presentation on the application which included photographs of the site. Members had visited the site and were familiar with the location and setting.

In response to a question from the Chairman the South West Team Leader confirmed that there would be no alteration to the perimeter wall.

Following a question from Councillor Armstrong about the provision of parking and the impact on the occupiers of the proposed dwellings, the applicant’s agent advised that each property would have its own garage and driveway with a legal right of access. Potential purchasers would be aware of the situation.

Councillor Kay considered that this was an excellent development and did not believe that parking would be an issue as it was formerly a public house with a car park to the rear.

Councillor Richardson moved and Councillor Kay seconded that the application be approved.

Resolved:

That the applications be approved subject to the conditions outlined in the report.
