Full Application - Change of farmhouse to holiday accommodation, including alterations and extensions at Dale House Farm, Chapel Street, Monyash

Meeting of In the light of the current coronavirus outbreak, and following the advice to avoid social contact this meeting has been CANCELLED, Planning Committee, Thursday 14th May 2020 1.00 pm, CANCELLED (Item 42/20)

Minutes:

Reason for Urgency: This development was business critical for the applicant.

Although there was some concern over the entire range of buildings being converted for holiday use, it was reported that they had not been associated with farming for a long time, and that it was within current policy. The Authority does not have a policy which prevents the change of use of dwellings into holiday accommodation in principle. There would not be an increase in parking and there were no immediate amenity issues, so would be difficult to defend if it went to appeal.

The following persons had submitted comments on the report:

· Mr K Smith, Authority Member

· Ms S Mudford

· Monyash Parish Council

· Mr C Macdonald

· Cllr P Brady, Authority Member

· Mr S Roberts

· Miss L Slack, Authority Member

The comments made were considered.

RESOLVED:-

1. That the application be APPROVED subject to the following conditions:

Standard 3-year time limit.

2. Compliance with amended plans and details.

3. Design and materials.

4. Holiday occupancy restriction.

5. Parking spaces to be provided.

6. Lighting scheme to be submitted and agreed prior to occupation.
