Applications for the Committee’s consideration:-
Application No 92690 – Forest Lodge Hotel, Pikes Hill
Two storey extension
RESOLVED: To recommend that this application be refused as the hotel had already been extended a large amount and there were neighbour concerns about the noise levels. The 30% increase in accommodation would exacerbate parking problems, which had been shown already by local representation. There were concerns regarding tree protection.
Application No 92712 – 36 High Street
Change of use from shop Class A1 to hot food takeaway
Class A5
RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be granted providing no consumption of food facilities be allowed outside and to ask that the ratio be checked regarding the change of use to an eating establishment.
Application No 92716 – NFDC, Appletree Court
Erection of 1500 square metre office extension and the
provision of 50 additional car parking spaces
RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be refused as there were strong representations from adjacent neighbours. The Committee were unhappy with the description on the application as it was difficult to find mention of the demolition of the chalet bungalow to provide additional car parking. There were also environmental concerns and not happy with extra traffic movement.
Application No 92739 – Cobwebs, Elcombes Close
Replace flat roof of existing single storey garage with pitched
roof and gable.
RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be granted as the proposals are a welcome replacement of a flat roof and the tiles will match the main building.
Any Other Business:-
Treework applications since the date of the last meeting:-
TPO 113/02-T6
The Mill House
Pruning of oak, thinning through. To reduce in height by 1-2 metres, lopping back of selective branches; remove x1 large low limb together with crown raising lower branches.
Planning Forms
RESOLVED: That the Clerk write to the NF NPA expressing the Parish Council’s concerns regarding the new planning forms. Although it was understood that these were a government requirement it was felt that the actual descriptions on the application were more difficult to comprehend and involved searching in several parts of the form to ascertain the entire application. It would be easier to miss part of the application.
