Agenda item

The application was for the erection of a part single storey, part first floor, part two storey first side and rear extension including the conversion of existing attached single garage and provision of attached single garage. (Amended plans rec'd 10/04/2017).

This application would normally have been determined under the Council's Scheme of Delegation, however, it was reported to the Planning Applications Committee at the request of Councillor Valerie White.

Members were advised of the following updates:

‘Clarification/correction: The amended drawings referred to in the officer report, received on 10 April 2017, have deleted the garage for the proposal, replacing it with a store to the front.  The description of the development proposal has been amended to that effect to state the following:

Erection of a part single storey, part first floor, part two storey side and rear extension (amended plans 10/04/2017)

Two parking spaces are to be provided to the front of the property instead.  It is proposed to add a condition to provide and retain the two parking spaces.

ADDITIONAL CONDITION:

The parking spaces shown on the approved plan 17006-002 Rev. A, received on 10 April 2017, shall be made available for use prior to the first occupation of the development and shall not thereafter be used for any purpose other than the parking of vehicles.

Reason: To ensure the provision of on-site parking accommodation and to accord with Policies CP11 and DM11 of the Surrey Heath Core Strategy and Development Management Policies 2012.’

 Councillor Valerie White commented that she had called the application in but the additional condition regarding car parking and the drop in the height of the building had allayed the concerns she had raised.

Resolved that application 17/0172 be approved as amended subject to the conditions as set out in the report of the Executive Head – Regulatory.
