The Strategic Director, Place presented Document “I”.  Plans and photographs were displayed in respect of each application and representations summarised.

 

(a)       25 Buttermere Road, Bradford                              Bolton & Undercliffe

 

A full planning application for the construction of front and rear dormer windows, a side and rear extension to 25 Buttermere Road, Bradford - 16/08700/HOU

 

The Strategic Director, Place gave a presentation setting out the proposals and tabled plans detailing the layout.  He explained that the application was for the construction of front and rear dormers and a side and rear extension.  Members were informed that numerous objections had been received and the issues were detailed in the officer’s report.  The Strategic Director, Place reported that there were similar extensions and dormers in the vicinity.  He confirmed that the dormers complied with Council policies and part of the application could be undertaken under permitted development rights, the side extension would, however, require planning permission.  The application was then recommended for approval, subject to the conditions as set out in the report. 

 

Resolved –

 

That the application be approved for the reasons and subject to the conditions set out in the Strategic Director, Place’s technical report.

 

Action: Strategic Director, Place

 

 

(b)       36 Santa Monica Road, Bradford                                    Idle & Thackley

 

A householder planning application for the construction of a hip-to-gable roof conversion with front and rear dormer windows at 36 Santa Monica Road, Bradford - 16/08434/HOU

 

The Strategic Director, Place gave a presentation setting out the proposals and tabled plans detailing the layout.  He informed the Panel that the application proposed the construction of a hipped gable roof and front and rear dormer windows, part of which did not require planning permission.  A number of representations in objection and support had been received and the issues were identified in the report.  It was noted that the front dormer was in accordance with all Council policies and the application was therefore recommended for approval.

 

In response to a Member’s query, the Strategic Director, Place reported that there were other dormers in the vicinity and the Council’s Householder Supplementary Planning Document (HSPD) allowed front dormers when there were no others on the street.

 

An objector was present at the meeting and raised the following concerns:

 

·         He owned the adjacent property.

·         The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) supported a social role in planning and there was a shortage of bungalows.

·         The proposal would deprive the elderly from suitable accommodation.

·         Bradford Council had a social responsibility for the elderly and the young.

·         How could the development protect the environment?

·         He had not seen any letter that stated planning permission was not required for the work that had commenced.

·         The house with a dormer to the front was further along the road.

·         The development would not add character to the area.

·         It would be the only property with a hipped roof.

·         Other properties had been modified without changing to a hipped roof.

·         The bungalows in the area were predominantly occupied by elderly people.
