Issue - meetings

Erection of 3 x 2 storey extension on first, second and loft floors to create 3 x one bed and 6 x two bed flats.

RECOMMENDATION: Grant permission subject to conditions.

The planning officer explained to the Committee that the application site was situated at 375-377 High Road in Tottenham Green Conservation Area.  The current use of the building was a single storey retail shop.  The surrounding properties were in general three storey buildings consisting of ground floor retail shops and self contained flats above.

The Committee were further informed that the proposed front and rear elevation of the two storey extension would blend into the existing height, bulk and mass of the neighbouring building.  The proposed roof lights would not be detrimental to the street scene.  The proposal had now been amended to provide 2 x one bed and 6 x 2 bed flats on the first, second floor and in the loft space.  The proposed development would not have any impact on adjoining neighbours.  The site was also located in a highly accessible area and was therefore considered suitable for car-free housing.  A condition to ensure that 9 cycle racks were provided was also proposed.

The Chair informed the meeting there were no objectors to this application and therefore representations could not be heard from the applicants.  The  Committee was requested to view the plans.

Members requested an additional condition subject to requiring submission of details to the planning authority details of the shop fronts.

The Chair moved a motion to grant planning permission subject to conditions and the extra condition.

RESOLVED

That the application be granted subject to conditions and the extra condition subject to the submission of details to the planning authority details of the shop fronts.
