STARCROSS - 19/00049/FUL - 50 Heywood Drive - Two storey side extension PDF 404 KB Additional documents: Minutes:
Public speaker, objector – The extension would be within 6 inches of the boundary and would close the space between nos 50 and 52; the garden of 52 receives much of its sunlight through this gap; contrary to Policy WE8; a light assessment demonstrates that it would overshadow no.52 by an additional 65% and loss of sunlight throughout the year; loss of off-road parking contrary to policy S1(e); half of the garden would be in shadow in the spring and the summer; overlooking and loss of privacy; overdevelopment of the site; no bin storage; and the upper window of extension will directly overlook the garden of no. 52.
Public speaker, supporter – The extension would provide additional space at ground and first floor; in accordance with policy; design is sympathetic with the street scene, and the existing building; no loss of off street parking; the existing fence will remain; the bins are stored away from the roadside and not on show; all rear windows form both properties overlook each other’s gardens; no window in the side elevation; and no reduction in current parking arrangements.
Comments from Members included: the extension would be set back and not as high as the existing dwelling; most properties overlook one another; the extension would close the space between the dwellings; and the rear window would look directly into the neighbouring garden.
The Business Manager advised that there would be no additional overlooking as a result of the proposal; there is no policy in the Local Plan relating to terracing effect between houses; and there are no planning reasons to refuse the application.
Resolved

Additional documents: Minutes: The Business Manager referred to the update and the recommended amendment to the Section 106 terms.
Public Speaker, objector – there is local and Town Council highway objections to this proposal; it these issues should be resolved prior to approval of the application; contrary to NPPF guidelines; the proposal does not provide a safe and suitable access for all users, particularly pedestrians and cyclists; and a continuous footpath is required.
Public speaker, supporter – this is a small development of properties, one of which he would reside in with his family so he would want safe access to all local amenities; highway improvements include increase visibility at the access; safe routes for pedestrians; and traffic calming measures along Broadway Road; these measures have been sought for years and the proposal would deliver these; and details will be finalised in the reserved matters application.
Comments from Members included: access goes as far as it can to provide safe access; the road is very narrow and currently not suitable for pedestrians and cyclists; existing road not suitable for the additional vehicles; proposed highway improvements would help alleviate the highway issues; there are a good number of shops, a post office and pubs east of the site at ‘Five Lanes.’ and residents will walk the most direct route to these along Broadway Road, with no footpath; the Devon Highways report from 24 September 2018 raised concerns to the application; and at what stage would the off-site affordable housing contribution be secured from the applicant.
In response the Business Manager confirmed the extent of the highway improvements which met with Devon County Council Highway Engineer’s approval, and advised that she would check the Devon County Highway concerns of September 2018. The Business Manager suggested additions to the recommended conditions set out in the report circulated with the agenda as follows: the highway concerns regarding access for all in relation to Tweenaways being resolved in consultation with the Ward Members; and Financial contribution towards affordable housing of £70,596 on completion of the 5th unit.
