Change of Use from Nursing Home to 19 No. Dwellings with rear, side and roof extensions and facade alterations.

 

Jamie Khariuk, a local resident, spoke against the application.

 

                                                            Councillor Sam Smith joined the meeting.

 

The Principal Planning Officer introduced the report.

 

Councillor Martin Smith, seconded by Councillor Sam Smith proposed that should the application be granted, an additional condition in relation to keyless entry to the site and CCTV, should be added, which was carried.

 

Following debate, the recommendations within the officer’s report to grant planning permission were not carried.

 

The Chair adjourned the meeting to allow officers to draft the proposed reasons for refusal of the application.

 

The meeting was adjourned at 18:33pm.

 

The meeting resumed at 18.38pm.

 

RESOLVED:

 

To refuse the application for the following reason:

 

1.     There are currently high levels of on-street car parking close to the application site and the proposal does not provide adequate off-street car parking to serve the development. As such, it is considered that the development will cause unacceptable issues of on-street car parking in the surrounding area, to the detriment of highway safety. As such, the proposal is contrary to Policies 57 and 61 of the adopted Local Planning Document (2018).

Application no. 2023/0926 - Land Rear of Coppice Farmhouse, Mapperley Plains, Arnold pdf icon PDF 716 KB

Minutes:

Erection of 54 dwellings (38 open market and 16 affordable dwellings), along with the provision of associated public open space and infrastructure.

 

The Principal Planning Officer informed members of two updates.

 

Firstly, that condition 9 on page 109 of the Planning Committee agenda recommended that, if planning permission be granted for the development, then this would be subject to a condition requiring the applicant to agree a Construction Method Statement.

 

She added that as part of this Construction Method Statement an alternative temporary road for construction traffic to access the site directly from the B684 Mapperley Plains could be explored and that whilst no precise details had been agreed, the Highway Authority had been consulted on this and had raised no objection to the principle of a temporary access road in this location during the construction of the site. She added that the applicant had also confirmed that they were agreeable in principle to the suggested temporary access road.

 

Secondly, there had been one further neighbour objection received after the Committee Report was published, in relation to dog walkers from the new Davidson Homes estate allowing their dogs to foul on her garden and that if planning permission was granted for this new development, then this situation may worsen.

 

The Principal Planning Officer then went on to introduce the report.

 

RESOLVED:

 

To GRANT PLANNING PERMISSION: Subject to the owner entering into planning obligations secured through a s106 agreement with the Borough Council as the Local Planning Authority and the County Council as the Local Highway Authority to secure 5 no. First Homes and 11 no. affordable rented units (affordable housing) on the site, areas of public open space on the site as well as a maintenance contribution, a travel plan monitoring fee, a S106 monitoring fee as well as a contribution to education, libraries, primary healthcare, and a local labour agreement and subject to the conditions listed for the reasons set out in the report.
