Agenda item - BH2016/00926 - 3 Sylvester Way, Hove - Householder Planning Consent

Erection of single storey side and rear extension.

RECOMMENDATION – GRANT

Erection of single storey side and rear extension.

Officer Introduction

1)               The Planning Manager – Major Planning Applications introduced the application and gave a presentation by reference to plans, photographs and elevational drawings. Similar applications had been refused twice and two appeals had been dismissed by the Inspector. Officers were now of the view that believed the current scheme had overcome the reasons for refusal and were recommending that the application be granted.

Debate and Decision Making Process

2)               Councillor Littman stated that he believed the extension was too large and too close to the neighbouring property and there would be a loss of light for the neighbouring property.

3)               Councillor Barradell noted that the scheme had vastly improved since the previous application.

4)               A vote was taken by the 11 Members present and the Officer recommendation that the Committee grant planning permission was carried on a vote of 10 in support, and 1 abstentions.

6.4         RESOLVED – That the Committee has taken into consideration and agrees with the reasons for the recommendation set out in section 11 of the report and the policies and guidance in section 7 and resolves to GRANT planning permission subject to the conditions and informatives set out in section 11.

              Note: Councillor Hyde was not present for the consideration and vote on the application.
