Agenda item

 

This planning application was determined in conjunction with the listed building application at Item 10.

 

The Chair and Vice Chair of Committee had visited the site on the previous day

 

The Planning Officer introduced the report, and informed Members that although there were a number of different elements to the application, they were all policy compliant and enhanced the site bringing the site into a  beneficial use whilst conserving and enhancing the important heritage assets within it.   No details had been received as yet regarding the greenhouses and other garden structures so they had been excluded from the proposal until such details received and then they would be dealt with separately.

 

The following addressed the Committee under the Public Participation at Meetings Scheme:-

 

·         Cllr Mrs  K Potter, Authority Member – Objector

·         Ms Sue Fogg, Objector – Statement – read out by Democratic Services

·         Stanton-in-the-Peak Parish Council, Objector – Statement read out by Democratic Services

·         Mr & Mrs Ramsden, Applicant – Live Telephone Call

 

Members agreed that the proposal provided much needed improvement to the Grade II Listed Building and that the works reversed a lot of the unsympathetic  works that had taken place.  Members asked whether an electric charging point could be installed, but the Planning Officer  reported that this was not necessary  as the scheme includes different renewable energy generation measures. There was also some doubt about the inadequacy of the electricity supply being able to support electric car charging point.

 

There was some concern on the increase in traffic on the narrow lane and the potential for accidents, but the Planning Officer reported that the Highways Authority had been closely involved with the application and they were satisfied with the access arrangements.

 

Officers stated that conditions 8 needed to be amended as it did not apply to retrospective works.

 

A motion to approve the recommendation as set out in the report with the amendment to condition 8 was moved, seconded, put to the vote and carried.
