APPLICATION FOR PLANNING PERMISSION 82409/FULL/2014 - MR. SIMON HARTLAND - 22 IRLAM ROAD, URMSTON

Minutes:

The Head of Planning Services submitted a report concerning an application for planning permission for the conversion and extension of existing detached garage to form supported living accommodation for people with learning disabilities with associated formation of car parking spaces.

 

        RESOLVED:  That planning permission be refused for the following reasons:-

 

1.       The application site, by reason of its limited size, would not be capable of adequately accommodating the proposed use and the necessary amenity space and ancillary facilities required for the prospective occupants and would therefore lead to a low level of residential amenity for those occupants. As such, the proposed development would be contrary to Policies L2 and L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy.

 

2.           The proposal, by reason of the number of parking spaces on the site frontage and the need for fencing between the amenity areas, would result in a cramped form of development that would have a detrimental impact on the visual appearance and character of the street scene and the surrounding area. As such, the proposed development would be contrary to Policy L2 and L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy.

 

3.       The proposed development would have a detrimental impact on the residential amenity of nearby residents and the convenience of other road users and on highway safety, by reason of the number of vehicle movements likely to be generated by the proposed use and associated manoeuvring on the public highway and the likelihood that vehicles associated with the proposed use would be forced to park on the public highway. As such, the proposed development would be contrary to Policies L2 and L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy.
