(a) To consider the following Planning Applications
Details of Planning Applications – Comments
Ref: 24/00453/FUL – Erection of oak framed double carport to front at 34 Church Lane, YO26 6LB.
The Parish Council Decision was B.
Ref: 24/00022/FUL – Two-storey side extension, single-storey rear extension and render to all elevations following demolition of conservatory at 3 Nursery Road, YO26 6NN. (revised application).
The Parish Council were not notified by CYC of this revised application.
The Parish Council feels that the adjustment on the latest application tries to clarify the position of the balcony and use thereof as not a seating area on the roof.
The Parish Council feels that there is an acknowledgement of the intrusion that the height of the wall and roof would make and are pleased to note that the hip-roof would afford more daylight into the neighbouring garden’s private space
The Parish Council are concerned that the boundaries of each property are not being accurately represented by the drawings that have been submitted and therefore would strongly recommend a site visit before the City Council make a final decision as this property. The property has already had additions to the existing building; hence a full inspection is recommended to assess impact of neighbouring properties.
The Parish Council decision therefore was C.
