Alterations to boundary wall, formation of terrace with canopies and additional play structures.

RECOMMENDATION – GRANT

Alterations to boundary wall, formation of terrace with canopies and additional play structures.

1)                      The Senior Team Planner, Kate Brocklebank, introduced the report and gave a presentation by reference to photographs, plans and elevational drawings. The site related to a two-storey detached property with accommodation in the roof space. Permission was sought for a retrospective application for alterations to the boundary wall and external terrace, canopies and play structures. It was noted that some of the structures protruded over the boundary wall, but it was felt that impact on the Sackville Gardens Conservation Area was limited and they were acceptable; it was also felt that the alterations to the wall were carefully and well executed. There were conditions in relation to managing the play activities and the application was recommendation for approval for the reasons set out in the report.

2)                      A vote was taken and the eleven Members present voted that unanimously that planning permission be granted.

166.3    RESOLVED - That the Committee has taken into consideration the recommendation and agrees with the reasons for the recommendation set out in section 11 and resolved to GRANT planning permission subject to conditions and informatives.

Note: Councillor Duncan was not present during the consideration and vote on this application.
