Public Consultation
Yes – 18 objections
The Senior Planning Officer presented the application for proposed alterations to existing roof design with the formation of gable ends and formation of a new rear mansard roof in order to provide a one bed self-contained flat.
Councillors were shown plans, photographs and elevations of the application site.
The application site is on the south east side of St. Saviours Road. Access to Keymer Close is on the west of the site. The area is predominantly residential in character and there are commercial buildings, i.e. a church and health centre and transport links, and local amenities and services nearby.
There is no parking at the application site and residents within the building are expected to park on surrounding roads. As the application is for one unit, it is unlikely there will be a significant impact on the parking demand in the area especially given its sustainable location and there is also a cycle storage area on the ground floor that is proposed for the application.
The site is on a higher land level than the identical existing building which is on its left side. This point is important to note as the roof design of the site is proposed to change as part of the application. The gable ends do not have any windows proposed and the flat will be served by five dormer windows on the rear elevation looking onto the car park area of Keymer Close.
A ventilated bin storage area and cycle storage area are both proposed on the ground floor and are secured by condition. Residents would expected to store their waste in the storage area and take the waste to the existing storage point at the front of the building.
Councillor Davies proposed a motion, seconded by Councillor O’Callaghan, to approve the planning application.
RESOLVED (6 votes for and 3 against) – that full planning permission be granted subject to the following conditions:
1.

5.
The development shall not be occupied or brought into use until the cycle storage facilities for the new residential unit have been provided in accordance with plan 19.153.1.E. The area shall thereafter be retained for that use and shall not be used other than for the parking of cycles.
