Public Consultation:
1 petition; 6 letters of objection and 1 letter of support received.
The Development Manager reported on an application for a proposed additional rear extension to the 2nd floor over an existing property to form a new bedroom at 9 St. Margarets Terrace, St. Leonards on Sea.
The site forms part of a period terraced three storey building within the Magdalen Road Conservation Area. The area is densely built up with similar style buildings along Magdalen Road.
The footprint of the extension measures 3.2 by 3.5 metres with a height of 3 metres. It would be built on the boundary with No.8 St Margarets Terrace to the south. There will be no windows in the south or rear elevation. To the north, the distance to the boundary is 2 metres, in this elevation there will be a window, however it would look out over an extension at No.10.
The Development Manager felt the impact on the Conservation Area and the impact on residential amenity would be minimal, he therefore recommended the application be approved subject to conditions.
Having raised his prejudicial interest, Councillor Dowling was absent from the Chamber during discussion and debate.
The Human Rights considerations had been taken into account fully in balancing the planning issues.
The petitioner, Mr Graham Fifield, was present and spoke against the application.
The applicant, Mr Simon Goodsell, was present and spoke in support of the application.
