SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
Background: A previous permission (P/2013/0661) enabled the applicant to
utilise the upper floor of the southerly coach house as two bedroomed
accommodation whilst the main house was refurbished and extended. This
application seeks to enable a further short term temporary permission with
works not yet fully completed.
Flooding issues: The site is located within a zone C2 flood area and
consideration is required of the safety implications for the occupants of the
site. In this particular case the applicant is only seeking a limited extension of
time to the previous temporary permission and I am conscious that the main
house will remain unoccupied during this period and as such the number of
occupants on site will not increase, and therefore no increased level of risk. I
have added a note to the applicant as previously recommended by NRW for
the applicants to register with an early warning flood-line.
Highways: No highway issues with no increase in traffic compared to the
occupation of the main house.
CONCLUSION
I have no objections to a further short temporary permission to enable
completion of the works to the main house.
RECOMMENDATION: That permission be GRANTED
CONDITION(S)
1.
The residential use of the coach house hereby approved shall cease
and be abandoned by May 31st 2015 or on completion of the works to the Mill
House, whichever is the earlier. The building shall be restored to its previous
condition in accordance with a scheme of works which has been submitted to
and approved in writing, by the Local Planning Authority, not later than two
months after the cessation of the approved temporary use.
2.
The residential use of the coach house hereby approved shall not take
place in conjunction with the residential use of the Mill House.
221
REPORT OF THE HEAD OF COMMUNITY WELLBEING AND DEVELOPMENT 5 May 2015
REASON(S)
1.
The building is not considered suitable for residential use in conjunction
with the Mill House as this would increase the likelihood of additional flood risk
to occupants and increased highway danger through increased use of a
substandard access.
2.
The building is not considered suitable for residential use in conjunction
with the Mill House as this would increase the likelihood of additional flood risk
to occupants and increased highway danger through increased use of a
substandard access.
