Construct detached two storey building compromising 4 apartments (C4 use)
Land south of Neville Sadler Court, Beeston, Nottinghamshire
Councillor G Bunn had requested that this proposal come before Committee.
The Committee gave consideration to the late items, which included a comment from a neighbour to the proposed development and two amendments to the report.
There were no public speakers.
Having given due consideration to all of the evidence before it, the Committee debated the application. The debate focussed on the flooding issues on the road, that the proposed development didn’t meet space standards, that the plot was too small for the number of flats and that the proposal would break the 20% saturation barrier in the supplementary planning document.
The Committee agreed that the site should be developed, but there were concerns about the density of the proposal and the living conditions for any future tenants in the very small rooms.
It was proposed by Councillor P J Bales and seconded by Councillor P A Smith that the item be deferred to a future meeting of the Planning Committee so that the applicant could consider changing the design and density of the proposal. On being put to the meeting the motion was carried.
RESOLVED that the application be deferred.
Reason
To allow the applicant to consider changing the design and density of the proposal.
