1535 Current Plans to consider

(i)DC/08/03498/PLF/WESTES – Full Planning Permission

Erection of 3 no., dwellings and associated works following demolition of existing (revised scheme of 07/06635/plf) at 55 Water Lane, South Cave for Swanhome Developments Cllr Marsh proposed that the Parish Council strongly recommend refusal of this application for the following reasons: this new application does not address the reasons given for recommending refusal of the previous application (07/06635), including overdevelopment of the site, massing and dominance; there is also a considerable slope to the site which would, given the proximity of the proposed dwellings to existing bungalows give a sense of enclosure.  It appears that whilst the number of proposed dwellings has been reduced by one, the ridge height and the footprint of the proposed dwellings has actually increased thereby not addressing the concerns previously raised. The application would also have an adverse effect on the street scene and character of the area, which is one of bungalows, large gardens and open vistas, as per the Village Design Statement pp 6:19:1, 6:19:8 and 5:22:4.  Concerns were also raised regarding: the sewerage treatment plant, because of the fall of the land, this could cause a problem of leakage; access; and a report of a bat roost in the garage at No.55 Water Lane, seconded Cllr Mrs Turner, All in favour.
