This application sought planning permission for the erection of a two storey side extension to enable the conversion of the existing dwelling and extension to four apartments and had been brought before the Committee at the request of Councillor D K Watts.

Members considered a late item for the application which was an objection which raised concerns over loss of privacy, the building height and the overpowering nature of the building.

Members debated the application and it was stated that it was of benefit to the community that the building was coming back into use.

Construct side extension

Construct side extension

Sri Thurkkai Anman Temple, West Crescent, Beeston Rylands, Nottinghamshire, NG9 1QE

This planning application sought to build an extension to the side of the existing building to be used as a store.

There were no late items for the application.

Members debated the application and the following comments were amongst those noted:

·         The proposed development was too large in addition to being too close to the neighbours.

·         This was a residential area and there was an over-intensification of the site.

·         There would be too much traffic with the extra visitors.

Councillor D Grindell proposed that the item be deferred for a future meeting. However, the proposal did not receive a seconder.

RESOLVED that the planning permission be refused, with the precise wording of the refusal to be delegated to the Head of Planning and Economic Development in consultation with the Chair of the Planning Committee.

Reason

By virtue of its scale and location, the extension as proposed is considered to be an over-intensive form of development which would have a detrimental impact on the amenities of the occupiers of neighbouring property, contrary to Policy 10 of the Broxtowe Aligned Core Strategy (2014) and Policy 17 of the Broxtowe Part 2 Local Plan (2019).

Construct pump house and sluice gate

Construct pump house and sluice gate

Temple Lake House, 53a Kimberley Road, Nuthall, NG16 1DA

This application, which sought permission to construct a single storey outbuilding to be used as a pump house and a sluice gate was brought to the Committee as it was inappropriate development within the Green Belt.

Members were asked to consider the late items for the application, which included two objections which raised concerns around a covenant for the land, the site being within the Green Belt and the loss of amenity due to the pitched roof.

The Committee debated the application and stated that further consideration should be given to a lower ridge or flat roof to the pump house building.

It was proposed by Councillor P J Owen and seconded by Councillor M Handley that the application be deferred.

RESOLVED that the application be deferred.
