The application had been called before Committee by Councillor S J Carr.

Jayne Humbert - Iles, made representation to the Committee prior to the general debate.

The Committee commenced the debate, having given due regard to all the evidence before it.  It was noted that the proposed development was in a residential area with a number of styles of home, so it would not have a negative impact on the street scene.  There was a discussion about the size of the plot and the lack of impact on neighbours.
