Conversion of existing care home to 2no. residential dwellings.
Members objected to this application on the grounds of:
- Insufficient parking for 1x5bed and 1x6bed property.
- Access restrictions to the existing rear properties.
- Access for emergency vehicles to existing properties – driveway in needs to kept clear. No measures to ensure clear access maintained.
- Waste storage provision.
- Design of building out of character to other residential dwellings and character of the area with the retaining of metal fire exit staircases.
Members also raised concerns with:
- The application form is unclear in section ‘Listed Buildings Alteration’. Both ‘c’ and ‘d’ answered No, yet believe should be ‘Yes’ as works is taking place to the internals of the building.
- Under the same section – listed buildings alterations – ‘b’ says No change to the exterior. Members question if this is correct given changing property into 2xdwellings.
- Highways access during construction and agree with the need made by Highways for a construction management plan must be in place.
