On behalf of her constituents, she raised the following concerns:-   <ul> <li class="MsoNormal"> the height of the proposal would be highly visible and sited above ground level and the listed walls;</li> <li class="MsoNormal"> the proposal would have a detrimental impact on the protected walls;</li> <li class="MsoNormal"> concerns for restricted car parking;</li> <li class="MsoNormal"> the timber cladding would be out of character; and</li> <li class="MsoNormal"> the proposal would constitute high density overdevelopment in a conservation area.</li> </ul>   Councillor Haycock left the chamber after speaking as the Electoral Division Member.   A detailed debate ensued the main points of which were noted as follows:-   <ul> <li class="MsoNormal"> the general principle of overdevelopment;</li> <li class="MsoNormal"> concern regarding the design and cladding of the proposed development;</li> <li class="MsoNormal"> the absence of off street parking provision; and</li> <li class="MsoNormal"> the number of Affordable Housing units.</li> </ul>   Arising from consideration of the report and debate, it was proposed by Councillor Clayton, seconded by Councillor Lyne and     RESOLVED  that Application No. PA09/01217/F be refused.   The reasons given by the proposer for wishing to refuse the Application were as follows:-   1.  Adequate car parking has not been provided within the site and it is likely that the proposed development would encourage the parking of vehicles on the public highway which would interrupt the free flow of traffic and thereby add to the hazards of highway users at this location.  The proposed development is therefore contrary to Policy 27 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004.   2.  The proposed development by reason of its design and layout would constitute overdevelopment of the site, resulting in a cramped form of development out of keeping with the character and appearance of the area and would neither preserve or enhance the area which is designated as a Conservation Area.  It was contrary to Section 72 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, policy 2 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004, policies B.EN11, B.EN14 and H23(a) of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004, statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Statements 1 and 3, and Planning Policy Guidance 15.   </div> </div> <a name="AI15572"></a>WPL/202 <a href="http://democracy.cornwall.gov.uk/mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=17000" title="Link to document 'PA09/01449/F: Mr S Neal: Erection of Extensions to Dwelling: Trebarwith, Tresowes, Ashton, Helston, Cornwall (*NO PUBLIC SPEAKING)' pdf file" class="external">PA09/01449/F: Mr S Neal: Erection of Extensions to Dwelling: Trebarwith, Tresowes, Ashton, Helston, Cornwall (*NO PUBLIC SPEAKING) PDF 419 KB </a> Additional documents: <ul class="mgBulletList"> <li> <a href="http://democracy.cornwall.gov.uk/mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=17088" class="external" title="Link to document 'Item 2 - Notes of Site Vist - Tresowes Helston' pdf file">Item 2 - Notes of Site Vist - Tresowes Helston, item WPL/202 PDF 43 KB </a> </li> </ul> Minutes: <div class="mgWordPara"><div class="Section1"> The Development Management Group Leader (MB) outlined the application to the Committee and advised that there were no further Addendum or updates.   Arising from consideration of the report and debate it was proposed by Councillor Clayton, seconded by Councillor Dolley and   RESOLVED  that Application No. PA09/01449/F be approved subject to conditions as set out in the report.   The reason given by the proposer for wishing to approve the Application was that the proposed design would result in a dwelling that was significantly large and different in appearance than the current modest bungalow. The question that must be asked was whether the proposal would generate such material harm to the character of the area to justify its refusal. Having assessed the proposal it was accepted that the building would be more visible within the immediate vicinity and was not considered to have an unduly detrimental impact upon the character and appearance of the wider landscape and would not lead to the overlooking or overshadowing of the neighbouring properties. The proposal was therefore considered to accord with policies VIS1, VIS2, EN1 and EN4 of Regional Planning Guidance 10, policies 1, 2 and 3 of Cornwall Structure Plan 2004, and policies ENV1, ENV1a, ENV2, ENV3, ENV11, ENV21, B.EN14 and H15 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004.   </div> </div> <a name="AI15573"></a>WPL/203 <a href="http://democracy.cornwall.gov.uk/mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=17001" title="Link to document 'PA09/00852/F: Lowena Homes (Redruth) Limited: Demolition of Existing Building and Redevelopment of the Site for Residential Use: 24 Drump Road, Redruth, TR15 1PW' pdf file" class="external">PA09/00852/F: Lowena Homes (Redruth) Limited: Demolition of Existing Building and Redevelopment of the Site for Residential Use: 24 Drump Road, Redruth, TR15 1PW PDF 609 KB </a> Additional documents: <ul class="mgBulletList"> <li> <a href="http://democracy.cornwall.gov.uk/mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=17089" class="external" title="Link to document 'Item 3 - Notes of Site Visit - Drump Rd Redruth' pdf file">Item 3 - Notes of Site Visit - Drump Rd Redruth, item WPL/203 PDF 49 KB </a> </li> </ul> Minutes: <div class="mgWordPara"><div class="Section1"> The Development Management Group Leader (MB) outlined the Application to the Committee, referred to the site meeting and advised of the following Addendums and updates:-   ·  a response from the Highways Development Management Officer detailing the requirement for an additional condition to address the concerns of the residents of Drump Road raised at the recent Members site meeting, to install traffic calming measures to access the proposed residential development.   ·  a response and correspondence from the agent as follows:-   (a)  a copy of an Article 6 Notice to be served on Cornwall Council as the Highway Authority.

It accorded with the housing and sustainable policies in statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Statements 1 and 3 and Planning Policy Guidance 13, policy 10 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004 and policies H12 and H13 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004. The principle of housing on this site was established in 2007 by virtue of the outline planning permission PA06/02023/O.   The site was well concealed from public viewing points and the precise design of the property would be the subject of a subsequent reserved matters application. It was considered that the principle of housing on this site which was well integrated with the built form of Constantine would not have an adverse impact on the visual amenities of the area. It accorded with statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Statements 1, 3 and 7, policy EN1 of Regional Planning Guidance 10, policies 1 and 2 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004, policies ST1, ENV1, ENV4, B.EN14, H12 and H13 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004, and Development Policy E of the Draft Regional Spatial Strategy for the South West.   Due to the size of the plot and the distance away of neighbouring properties it was considered that a dwelling can be accommodated on the site which would not have an adverse impact on the residential amenities of the occupants of nearby properties whilst maintaining a satisfactory amenity area for future occupants of the development. It accorded with statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Statements 1 and 3, and policies B.EN14, H13 and H23 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004.   The access to the site together with adequate visibility at the junction with the maintained highway would not give rise to dangerous traffic conditions. Adequate parking and turning can be accommodated within the site. The development accords with statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Guidance 13, policy 28 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004 and policies T10 and T11 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004.   The site was not within a Flood Zone and notwithstanding this  ...  <a href="http://democracy.cornwall.gov.uk/mgAi.aspx?ID=15578" class="external" title="Link to view the full item text for item WPL/209, PA09/01548/FE: Mrs J Harris: Extension of time for the erection of dwelling (of decision notice number PA06/02023/O) dated 17 January 2007: The Reens, Brillwater, Constantine, Falmouth, Cornwall"> view the full minutes text for item WPL/209</a> </div> </div> <a name="AI15579"></a>WPL/210 <a href="http://democracy.cornwall.gov.uk/mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=16998" title="Link to document 'List of Planning Appeal Decisions received, of Appeals lodged and dates of Public Inquiries' pdf file" class="external">List of Planning Appeal Decisions received, of Appeals lodged and dates of Public Inquiries PDF 56 KB </a> Minutes: <div class="mgWordPara"><div class="Section1"> It was moved by Councillor Tanner, seconded by Councillor Cullimore, and   RESOLVED  that the list of planning appeal decisions received, or appeals lodged and dates of public inquiries be noted.   </div> </div> <div class="mgHelpLine"> </div> </div> 2010-03-17T00:15:28+00:00

The question that must be asked was whether the proposal would generate such material harm to the character of the area to justify its refusal. Having assessed the proposal it was accepted that the building would be more visible within the immediate vicinity and was not considered to have an unduly detrimental impact upon the character and appearance of the wider landscape and would not lead to the overlooking or overshadowing of the neighbouring properties. The proposal was therefore considered to accord with policies VIS1, VIS2, EN1 and EN4 of Regional Planning Guidance 10, policies 1, 2 and 3 of Cornwall Structure Plan 2004, and policies ENV1, ENV1a, ENV2, ENV3, ENV11, ENV21, B.EN14 and H15 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004.   </div> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="mgItemNumberCell"><a name="AI15573"></a>WPL/203</td> <td> <a href="mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=17001" title="Link to document 'PA09/00852/F: Lowena Homes (Redruth) Limited: Demolition of Existing Building and Redevelopment of the Site for Residential Use: 24 Drump Road, Redruth, TR15 1PW' pdf file" class="mgAiTitleLnk">PA09/00852/F: Lowena Homes (Redruth) Limited: Demolition of Existing Building and Redevelopment of the Site for Residential Use: 24 Drump Road, Redruth, TR15 1PW <img src="mgimages/logo-pdf-1.gif" height="10" alt="pdf icon" width="10" /> PDF 609 KB </a> Additional documents: <ul class="mgBulletList"> <li> <a href="mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=17089" title="Link to document 'Item 3 - Notes of Site Visit - Drump Rd Redruth' pdf file">Item 3 - Notes of Site Visit - Drump Rd Redruth, item WPL/203 <img src="mgimages/logo-pdf-1.gif" height="10" alt="pdf icon" width="10" /> PDF 49 KB </a> </li> </ul> Minutes: <div class="mgWordPara"><div class="Section1"> The Development Management Group Leader (MB) outlined the Application to the Committee, referred to the site meeting and advised of the following Addendums and updates:-   ·  a response from the Highways Development Management Officer detailing the requirement for an additional condition to address the concerns of the residents of Drump Road raised at the recent Members site meeting, to install traffic calming measures to access the proposed residential development.   ·  a response and correspondence from the agent as follows:-   (a)  a copy of an Article 6 Notice to be served on Cornwall Council as the Highway Authority.

She informed Members that the Application was for an extension of time, in an Area of Great Landscape Value.   A detailed debate ensued the main points of which were noted as follows:   <ul style="qargin-top:0cm"> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3;tab-stops:list 36.0pt">clarification in respect of the date of expiry of the previous permission and the application receipt date; and</li> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3;tab-stops:list 36.0pt">the proposed period for extension of permission.</li> </ul>   Arising from consideration of the report it was proposed by Councillor Hatton, seconded by Councillor Harding, and   RESOLVED  that Application No. PA09/01548/FE be approved subject to conditions as set out in the report.   The reason given by the proposer for wishing to approve the application was that the development was located on a brownfield site within the village development boundary for Constantine village as defined in the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004. It accorded with the housing and sustainable policies in statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Statements 1 and 3 and Planning Policy Guidance 13, policy 10 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004 and policies H12 and H13 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004. The principle of housing on this site was established in 2007 by virtue of the outline planning permission PA06/02023/O.   The site was well concealed from public viewing points and the precise design of the property would be the subject of a subsequent reserved matters application. It was considered that the principle of housing on this site which was well integrated with the built form of Constantine would not have an adverse impact on the visual amenities of the area. It accorded with statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Statements 1, 3 and 7, policy EN1 of Regional Planning Guidance 10, policies 1 and 2 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004, policies ST1, ENV1, ENV4, B.EN14, H12 and H13 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004, and Development Policy E of the Draft Regional Spatial Strategy for the South West.   Due to the size of the plot and the distance away of neighbouring properties it was considered that a dwelling can be accommodated on the site which would not have an adverse impact on the residential amenities of the occupants of nearby properties whilst maintaining a satisfactory amenity area for future occupants of the development. It accorded with statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Statements 1 and 3, and policies B.EN14, H13 and H23 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004.   The access to the site together with adequate visibility at the junction with the maintained highway would not give rise to dangerous traffic conditions. Adequate parking and turning can be accommodated within the site. The development accords with statements of Government advice in Planning Policy Guidance 13, policy 28 of the Cornwall Structure Plan 2004 and policies T10 and T11 of the Draft Kerrier District Local Plan 2004.   The site was not within a Flood Zone and notwithstanding this  ...  <a href="mgAi.aspx?ID=15578" title="Link to view the full item text for item WPL/209, PA09/01548/FE: Mrs J Harris: Extension of time for the erection of dwelling (of decision notice number PA06/02023/O) dated 17 January 2007: The Reens, Brillwater, Constantine, Falmouth, Cornwall"> view the full minutes text for item WPL/209</a> </div> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="mgItemNumberCell"><a name="AI15579"></a>WPL/210</td> <td> <a href="mgConvert2PDF.aspx?ID=16998" title="Link to document 'List of Planning Appeal Decisions received, of Appeals lodged and dates of Public Inquiries' pdf file" class="mgAiTitleLnk">List of Planning Appeal Decisions received, of Appeals lodged and dates of Public Inquiries <img src="mgimages/logo-pdf-1.gif" height="10" alt="pdf icon" width="10" /> PDF 56 KB </a> Minutes: <div class="mgWordPara"><div class="Section1"> It was moved by Councillor Tanner, seconded by Councillor Cullimore, and   RESOLVED  that the list of planning appeal decisions received, or appeals lodged and dates of public inquiries be noted.   </div> </div> </td> </tr> </table> <div class="mgHelpLine"> </div> </div>
