Demolition of the existing building (arranged as 5 flats) and formation of 7 new apartments with vehicular and pedestrian access.

(Wellswood Ward)

The Committee considered an application for demolition of the existing building (arranged as five flats) and formation of seven new apartments with vehicular and pedestrian access.

Prior to the meeting, Members of the Development Management Committee undertook a site visit and written representations were circulated to members.  At the meeting Fiona McPhail addressed the Committee against the application and Dan Metcalfe addressed the Committee in support of the application.

Resolved:

That consideration of the application be deferred to allow for further information/detail with regard to reducing the bulk of the proposal, resolution of overlooking on the east elevation and the impact the proposal would have on the neighbouring conservation area.

(Note:  During consideration of application 2011/0062/PA, Councillor McPhail declared a personal prejudicial interest and withdrew from the meeting room.)
