INFORMATION RELATING TO APPLICATION REF: HGY/2007/1867

FOR PLANNING COMMITTEE DATED 06/10/2008

Location: Rear Of 60 - 88 Cecile Park N8

Proposal: Conservation Area Consent for demolition of existing garages and erection of 2 x single storey houses with associated car parking.

Recommendation: Refuse Consent

Decision: Refuse Consent

Drawing No’s: PP-01 to PP-07, PP-10 to PP24 incl.

Reason:

1. The proposed demolition of the garages would be premature in that the Local Planning Authority has not received an application and / or granted planning permission for a suitable replacement development.  Premature demolition would not be in the interests of preserving the character and appearance of the Scotland Green Conservation Area contrary to Policy CSV7 'Demolition in Conservation Areas' of the Unitary Development Plan 2006.
