PDF 97 KBMinutes:
The Head of Planning and Regeneration Services reported the receipt of comments from an adjoining occupier.
At the invitation of the Chairman, Mr. G. Darby addressed the Committee and spoke in opposition to the proposed development. Furthermore, Councillor Dr. D. W. P. Booth JP spoke in his capacity as one of the Ward Members for the area in which the site was located.
Consideration was then given to the application which had been recommended for approval by the Head of Planning and Regeneration Services. However, on the matter being put to the vote, Members considered that the development would:-
(a) be out of keeping with the existing form and layout of the locality; and
(b) be harmful to existing residential amenity through poor design due to inadequate separation distances, leading to loss of privacy and outlook (with particular reference to proposed 'Building C').
RESOLVED that permission be refused for reasons (a) and (b) above.
