Decisions:

Members had visited the site on the previous day.

 

Agenda items 8 and 9 were discussed together but were voted on separately.

 

The applicant, Mrs Sue Harrison, was present at the meeting.

 

The Officer confirmed that following the site visit a further discussion with the Highways Authority had taken place regarding the size of the garage and they had confirmed it was suitable for use of one car only but that one parking space is still sufficient to meet the parking standards.

 

Due to an administrative error the Parish Council had not been notified of the application but had submitted their comments by email the day before the meeting and requested the item be deferred.  The Officer read out the email from the Parish Council at the meeting and Members considered it was appropriate to proceed with consideration of the item.

 

The Officer recommendation for approval subject to changes to condition 3 to reduce it to 1 parking space and a re-wording of condition 4 to allow the use as an office only and for no other purposes whatsoever was moved, seconded, put to the vote and carried.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the application be APPROVED subject to the following conditions:

 

1.    3 year time limit

 

 

2.    Adopt submitted plans

 

 

 

3.    The premises the subject of the application shall not be taken into use until the proposed car parking has been laid out to provide 2 spaces for Rock View Cottage and 1 space for the proposed premises with vehicular access secured from East Bank. Once provided the parking spaces shall remain available for use throughout the life of the development with no impediment to their designated use.

 

 

 

Use of the building shall be as an office and for no other purpose whatsoever without express planning consent from the National Park Authority (including any other purpose in Class B1 of the schedule to the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987 or in any order revoking and re-enacting that order.)
