Replacement garage. This site is in CIL Zone 4 (Zero Rated) as other development.

The Planning Team Leader presented his report with updates. This was followed by 4 Public Speakers.

Members then took part in a full debate on the application where a number of points were raised including the proximity to the road and the drainage ditch, the proposed materials which were not replacing like with like and whether they were out of keeping with the existing street scene, whether this was a replacement garage or a new building on the site of a garage, issues of height and increased size, the width of the road, vehicular access to the garage and the need for a site visit.

It was proposed and seconded that a site visit was necessary to answer questions over vehicular access.

The Committee

RESOLVED

That the application be deferred depending a site visit by Committee Members to consider vehicular access.
