Proposal: Retention of roof extensions comprising: extension of existing dormer on west elevation; extension of existing dormer on east elevation with provision of new windows on east and south elevation of dormer. Retention of replacement roof tiles from concrete to slate. Provision of burnt natural timber cladding to external façade of existing and proposed extended dormers and front gable.

 

The Committee considered the written report and recommendation of the Head of Planning to grant permission.

 

The Committee received supplementary information, circulated prior to the meeting, which set out:

 

a)    Additional information in relation to boundary screening, alterations to windows in the existing east facing dormer window and material samples;

 

b)    A proposed additional condition to reflect the altered position on materials for the proposed cladding;

 

c)    Additional statements and photographs submitted by the applicant; and

 

d)    An additional statement submitted by an objector.

 

The Committee was addressed by the following deputees:

 

(1)  Mr Percy, who objected to the application for the following reasons:

 

a)    The clear glass windows on the east elevation result in direct overlooking and loss of privacy in his residence at 11C Salterns Lane; and

 

b)    There was a need for consistency between conditions applied to properties in this area, as a conservatory at 11C Salterns Lane was required to have obscured glass windows that were fixed shut.

 

(2)  Mr Roper, who objected to the application for the following reasons:

 

a)    The application was not consistent with Policy CS12 of the Local Plan, which sets out that developments in this area must be considerate of the Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB);

 

b)    The application was not consistent with Policy CS16 of the Local Plan, which concerns high quality design;

 

c)    The application would be detrimental to visual amenities of the local area; and

 

d)    There had been a lack of enforcement activity from the Council that had resulted in the current situation and this should be rectified.

 

(3)  Mr Garton, who spoke in support of the application for the following reasons:

 

a)    The application was mostly within permitted development parameters;

 

b)    There had been a lack of contact from the Chichester Harbour Conservancy to discuss their objections, despite a willingness from the applicants to discuss the impact to the Chichester Harbour AONB with the Conservancy;

 

c)    The application would not result in additional overlooking of neighbouring properties; and

 

d)    The application would not harm the visual amenities of the area and there was a variety of differing house designs within Simmons Green.

 

(4)  Councillor Satchwell, who highlighted the following to the Committee:

 

a)    There had been confusion in the Council’s procedures and delays in responses that had led to difficulties in the application process and neighbourly disputes; and

 

b)    The objections raised by the Chichester Harbour Conservancy had now been shown as incorrect as the application was not within the Chichester Harbour AONB.

 

Following the deputations, the Chairman invited members to ask questions of officers regarding the report and proposal. In response  ...  view the full minutes text for item 30.

The Committee considered the written report and recommendations from the Head of Planning to refuse permission.

 

The Committee received supplementary information, circulated prior to the meeting, which set out:

 

a)    An update on consultation with the South East Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group;

 

b)    Additional representations received from a previous supporter;

 

c)   Links to the previous committee report and minutes in relation to the outline planning permission (Ref: 10/74014/000) for the Hampshire Farm development;

 

d)    A letter from the Agent setting out their latest position; and

 

e)    Two additional third party representations.

 

The Committee was addressed by the following deputees:

 

(1)  Mrs Farmer, who supported the application for the following reasons:

 

a)    There were more pressing social requirements for the site than a doctors surgery, with a particular need for facilities for young persons;

 

b)    The site was no longer suitable for the provision of a health care facility and the original proposal was out-dated; and

 

c)    There were alternative sites that were more suitable for the provision of health care facilities in the area, such as the Emsworth Victoria Cottage Hospital Site.

 

In response to questions from the Committee, the deputee advised that:

 

·         The Emsworth Victoria Cottage Hospital site was larger than the Hampshire Farm site, with more provision for parking.

 

·         The Emsworth Victoria Cottage Hospital site was no longer functioning as an operational health care facility.

 

(2)  Councillor Pike, who supported the officer’s recommendations for the following reasons:

 

a)    The applicants had elapsed on extended timescales for the provision of a doctor’s surgery on the site and had not made satisfactory progress; and

 

b)    The Council would be ideally placed to co-ordinate and lead on the usage of the site, which could encompass development in addition to a doctor’s surgery.

 

Following the deputations the Chairman invited members to ask questions of officers regarding the report and proposal. In response to these questions it was advised that;

 

·    Indicative timescales for the proposed surgery had been provided by the Primary Care Surveyors and were detailed within the report but these had already slipped;

 

·    Officers were aware that the applicant had  ...  view the full minutes text for item 31.
