Application for wood store to the rear of garage and reduction in the size of garage.

Supplementary information:

Consultations:-

An additional comment has been received stating that planning officers were not in favour of a two storey house on the site next door to the site and that was not as high as this garage.

Appraisal:-

On the basis of the additional comment each planning application is assessed on its own planning merits, with this particular application being assessed within the body of the main report.

In regard to the garage it is worth noting that the garage within this application is smaller than what was originally approved and therefore the impact on the surrounding area would be less if this application is granted than what would have been the case if the original garage were built.

Application for wood store to the rear of garage and reduction in the size of garage.

In presenting the application, the Head of Planning and Development informed members of an inaccuracy in paragraphs 2.1 and 8.7 of the report which referred to the measurements for the garages and wood store. The correct measurements were reported and it was noted that the application proposed a small increase in floor area rather than a reduction.

It was moved by Councillor Crooks, seconded by Councillor Bray and

RESOLVED – permission be granted subject to the conditions contained in the officer’s report, with the final detail of the conditions delegated to the Head of Planning and Development.
