Planning Applications for the Committee's consideration:

Application No 96286 – Forest View, 5 The Custards
Outbuilding

RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be granted but to accept the decision reached by the NFNPA's officers under delegated powers. The proposals appear in keeping with the surrounding area.

 

Application NO 96257 – 13 High Street
Change of use from A1 to A3 and B1

RESOLVED: To accept the decision reached by the NFNPA's officers under delegated powers. Concern was expressed that Lyndhurst already has more than sufficient eating and drinking establishments. Retail units are closing in the village and unless this trend can be reversed Lyndhurst will become a ghost village. Regrettably unless it can be proven that eating establishments now outnumber the 50% of retail as specified in DP7 there is little justification within policy for a refusal.

 

Application No 96276 – Wymering House, Sandy Lane
Change of use from residential, use Class C3 to a residential care home, use Class C2 and two small scale extensions with associated car, motor cycle and cycle parking provision

 

RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be refused. Wymering House is at the end of a single gravel track serving residential properties. It is an unadopted track and not suitable for servicing a residential care home. Sandy Lane has no pavements adjacent to the track and leads on to the busy one way system that has no pedestrian crossing. This totally unsafe for vulnerable people trying to access the village. Permission has just been granted for a 50 bed residential care home at the back of Wymering House and this has an existing access off the A35. The infrastructure in Lyndhurst is already at saturation point. There are already adequate number of residential care homes in the village, including Coxlease. In order to keep a stable economy and community the village needs affordable homes in order to have a balanced age range in which to thrive. It would be totally wrong to introduce a business use in this highly residential area and the business use would not sit well with the character of the area. There would be a loss of amenity to nearby residents because of movement noise/changeovers.

 

Application No 96287 – Myrtle Cottage, 1 Queens Road
Infill existing porch

 

RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be granted.

 

Application No 96296 – The Mill House, Romsey Road
Application for consent to display an advertisement(s)

 

RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be refused. There are existing enforcements outstanding concerning advertisements on this site. The proposals are considered to contain an unacceptable proliferation of signage and would have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.

 

Application No 96315 – Le Cabanon, Broughton Road
Rear conservatory

 

RESOLVED: To recommend that permission be granted. There does not appear to be any impact on neighbouring amenity and the proposals are in keeping with the existing dwelling and surrounding area.

 

Application No 96330 – Prezzo, 20 High Street
Application for listed building consent - installation of signage

 

RESOLVED: To accept the decision reached by the NFNPA's officers under delegated powers.
