Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

All planning applications for Coton considered by the Planning Committee since May 2003. For individual reports, please click on the ‘Meetings’ tab above. For further details on all Coton planning applications, please visit our Planning Applications Database and select Coton from the drop-down list of parishes.

Decision:

The Committee approved applications S/1508/09/F and S/1509/09/LB contrary to the recommendation in the report from the Corporate Manager (Planning and Sustainable Communities).  Reason:  The proposal would not detract from the special character and appearance, or erode the historic plan and form, of the listed building.  Despite the cumulative effect of the extensions, the original character of the rear elevation would not be lost and no harm would be caused by an additional extension.  The proposal would not dominate the rear elevation of the property, either visually or physically.   As such, it would not significantly or detrimentally change the appearance of the building.   Design of the proposed extension and, in particular, the roof form, was not considered inappropriate or out of keeping with the simple character of the rear elevation.   Members considered the proposal to be consistent with Policies CH/3 and CH/4 of the South Cambridgeshire Local Development Framework 2007 and not contrary to the advice in paragraph 3.4 of Planning Policy Guidance Note 15.
