Readvertisement
(Further Revised Plans Received) Reserved Matters
application for the development of 64no. dwellings (including market, affordable and
retirement housing), landscaping and associated works following
grant of Outline consent 0771/16/OPA
Case Officer Update:
Parish consultation response update:
•
Amendments reduce but do not eliminate issues of overlooking and
overbearing impact on neighbours;
• More
landscaping details are needed and this should be included now not
condition;
•
Overlooking problems are caused by building up of land – do
not accept this is to manage road gradients but is to accommodate
drainage tanks;
• Drainage
scheme is defective;
• Not
acceptable for drainage to be dealt with by condition; and
• The
Council maintains its objection to the scheme.
Further letters of representation from approx. 12
residents – new issues raised:
§
Objection from DCC Flood Risk reported as additional
information required should be ‘objection’;
§
Better not to determine this application until
drainage agreed;
§
Proposed conditions regarding landscaping, layout,
planting, surfaces and finishes all relate to type and layout of
drainage and cannot be agreed until drainage scheme is
final;
§
Condition 2 does not include drawing numbers –
so new drawings could be approved;
§
Wrong to condition things like landscaping, boundary
treatments, material etc as proposed in
the conditions;
§
Building heights of apartments behind 29 GPW remain
overbearing and should be bungalows;
§
Heights of plots 50 & 51 remain too high behind
53 GPW – should be houses not apartments – or at least
roof hipped as per Plot 46. More
screening required to provide privacy – controls on external
lighting required. Concerned new
neighbours should not invoke high hedge complaints about their
boundary;
§
47 Green Park Way – want land removed from
plot 43 and tree planting provided instead – overlooking
still an issue;
§
Want restrictions to prevent internal changes to
houses to having living accommodation upstairs and no changes to
windows/doors etc. Plots 50 and
51 should be hipped;
§
Why is tank H2 showed sitting above natural ground
level?
§
Officer report now mentions 64 houses again not
63;
§
Can condition 6 apply to all house on southern
boundary?
§
Drainage does not enhance biodiversity;
§
Ramped access are at 1:10 – exceed recommended
gradients for DDA compliance;
§
Steep gardens would not be safe;
§
First 100m of the access road is at 1:10.2 gradient
– exceeding recommended max of 1:12 (80m); and
§
Scheme does not respect local
distinctiveness.
