Resolved (9:4) That the application be refused on the following grounds:

APP/14/01412 - 38 THURSTASTON ROAD, IRBY CH61 0HF - ERECTION OF HOUSE AND GARAGE pdf icon PDF 274 KB

Minutes:

The Strategic Director for Regeneration and Environment submitted the above application for consideration.

 

A Ward Councillor addressed the Committee.

 

On a motion by Councillor Elderton and seconded by Councillor Kelly it was:

 

Resolved (13:0) That the application be refused on the following grounds:

 

The proposed development would, by virtue of its size and layout, position within the site and its relationship with neighbouring properties, particularly 39 Martin Close, have a detrimental impact on the amenities of neighbouring properties in terms of outlook, light and privacy, resulting in a development that does not relate well to surrounding properties and an overdevelopment of the site. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy HS4 of the adopted Wirral Unitary Development Plan.

APP/14/01540 - LAND AT HAZELDENE WAY, THINGWALL - ERECTION OF 7 NEW BUILD HOUSES pdf icon PDF 352 KB

Minutes:

The Strategic Director for Regeneration and Environment submitted the above application for consideration.

 

A Ward Councillor addressed the Committee.

 

On a motion by Councillor Brightmore and seconded by Councillor Elderton it was:

 

Resolved (13:0) That the application be refused on the following grounds:

 

The proposed development would result in the loss of a number of garages currently on site and would result in an increase in demand for on-street parking within the locality.  It is also considered that the number of units proposed would be likely to give rise for increased demand for on-street parking within the immediate vicinity of the site.  The resulting displaced parking and additional demand would exacerbate current on-street parking congestion on adjoining and nearby residential roads, resulting in conditions that would prejudice the amenities of neighbouring residents.  The proposals would therefore be contrary to Policy HS4 and TR9 of the adopted Wirral Unitary Development Plan.
