Minutes:
The Strategic Director for Regeneration and
Environment submitted the above application for consideration.
Concerns were raised by Members, following a
previous site visit, with regards to potential for noise
disturbance to neighbouring residential properties.
On a motion by Councillor Kelly and Seconded
by Councillor Brightmore it was:
Resolved (7:5) That
the application be refused on the following grounds:
It is considered the
proposed variation of condition and resulting later opening hours
would result in noise and disturbance later at night that would be
detrimental to the amenities neighbouring residents should expect
to enjoy at a time when ambient noise levels are lower. As such the application is considered contrary to
Policies HS15 and SH4 of the Wirral Unitary Development Plan,
Supplementary Planning Document 3 (Hot Food Takeaways, Restaurants,
Cafes and Drinking Establishments) and the National Planning Policy
Framework.

APP/14/01333: Garage Rear of, 18 Rullerton Road, Liscard, Wirral - Site redevelopment and change of use of a car mechanics garage, and first floor offices to create 13 new residential units (amended description) PDF 125 KB
Minutes:
The Strategic Director for Regeneration and
Environment submitted the above application for consideration.
A Petitioner addressed the Committee
The Agent addressed the Committee
A Ward Councillor addressed the Committee
On a motion by Councillor Elderton and
seconded by Councillor Daniel it was:
Resolved (12:0) That
the application be refused on the following grounds:
It is considered
that the scale and design of the proposed development would not
relate well with neighbouring properties and the character of the
surrounding area. The proposed development would result in a
cramped and overdeveloped appearance that would be detrimental to
the amenities of both future residents of the development and those
of existing neighbouring properties resulting in inadequate outlook
for the future occupants of the proposed development and will
result in overlooking and loss of privacy to surrounding
properties. The proposal does not provide sufficient amenity
space for future residents. The proposed development is therefore
contrary to Policies HS4, HS10 and HS13 of the adopted Wirral
Unitary Development Plan, Supplementary Planning Document 2
(Designing for Self Contained Flat Development and Conversions) and
the National Planning Policy Framework.
