Agenda item - BH2022/02465 - 23 Brooker Street, Hove - Full Planning

1.    The Planning Manager introduced the application to the committee.

Answers to Committee Member Questions

2.    Councillor Theobald was informed that the property had been extended to the rear in about 1878, before the ‘baseline’ date set out in the policy of 1947. The property was noted as being individual and not the same as surrounding properties so no precedent would be set.

Debate

3.    Councillor Theobald considered the application to be setting a precedent and not fair on neighbours. The councillor did not support the application.

Vote

4.    A vote was taken, and by 4 to 2 the committee agreed to grant planning permission. (Councillors Moonan, Childs and Shanks were not in attendance to vote or take part in the decision making process).

5.    RESOLVED: That the Committee has taken into consideration and agrees with the reasons for the recommendation set out in the report and resolves to GRANT planning permission subject to the Conditions and Informatives in the report.
