The motion was put to the vote and declared carried.

 

              RESOLVED:  That planning permission be granted subject to the following conditions:-

 

(1)            The development must be begun not later than three years beginning with the date of this permission.

              Reason: Required to be imposed by Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.

 

(2)            The development hereby permitted shall not be carried out except in complete accordance with the details shown on the submitted plans, numbers: TR.L2.146.OS; TR.L2.146.P4A; TR.L2.146.P5A; TR.L2.146.P6A.

     Reason: To clarify the permission, having regard to Policy L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

(3)            The materials used in any exterior work must be of a similar appearance to those used in the construction of the exterior of the existing building.

     Reason: In order to ensure a satisfactory appearance in the interests of visual amenity having regard to Policy L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy, the Council's adopted Supplementary Planning Document 4: A Guide for Designing House Extensions and Alterations and the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

(4)            Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 (or any equivalent Order following the amendment, re-enactment or revocation thereof) no window or other opening shall be formed in the side elevations of the extension hereby permitted facing no. 29 and 27 Shrewsbury Court, unless a further permission has first been granted on application to the Local Planning Authority.

              Reason: To ensure satisfactory level of privacy between properties, having regard to Policy L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy, the Council's adopted Supplementary Planning Document 4: A Guide for Designing House Extensions and Alterations and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

Reasons for approval

 

(1)            The adaptation of the property to allow for the personal circumstances of the occupier is considered to carry great weight in improving the accessibility of the property.

 

(2)            The proposed extension to the rear of the property is not considered to result in harm to the streetscene given the lack of uniformity in the area, nor is the proposal considered to result in harm to residential amenity through loss of light or be unduly overbearing. As such, the proposal is not contrary to Policy L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy, the Council's adopted Supplementary Planning Document 4: A Guide to Designing House Extensions and Alterations, February 2012 and advice contained within the National Planning Policy Framework.
