(a) 1 Pollard Street, Cottingley, Bingley Bingley Rural
Construction of a pair of semi-detached two bedroom dwellings at 1 Pollard Street, Cottingley, Bingley - 16/03831/FUL
The Strategic Director, Regeneration gave a presentation setting out the proposals and tabled plans detailing the layout. He informed Members that the application proposed the construction of a pair of two bedroom semi detached dwellings on a plot of land in the centre of Cottingley that was currently the garden area to the side of 1 Pollard Street and below the level of the existing house. There were traditional houses in the area and the proposed dwellings would be built at a right angle to Hollings Street. A small garden area would be retained for the host property and parking spaces would be provided to the front of the new houses. Stone and slate materials would be used to match existing properties and be in keeping with the area. The Strategic Director, Regeneration reported that Bingley Town Council had recommended that the application be refused and a number of representations in objection and support had been submitted. He reiterated that the houses in the vicinity were traditional and modest sized houses had been proposed. They would sit slightly below the level of the existing properties and not appear dominant. It was noted that the new houses would be angled to look at a different aspect and, therefore, would not have a negative impact on the amenity of the existing residents. There was on street parking in the area and three parking spaces would be provided. The Council’s Highways Department had not objected to the scheme. In conclusion the application was recommended for approval, subject to the conditions as set out in the report.
The applicant’s agent was present at the meeting and made the following statements:
· All the representations had been reviewed. · Objections had been submitted from residents to the north and south of the site. · The tree had not been protected and could be felled. · A section drawing had been prepared and there would not be any loss of light. · The new houses would be at a lower level and have a boundary fence, so would not overlook the properties on Smith Street. · The gable ends would be blank except for a small landing window that would be obscure glazed. · Permitted development rights had been removed and obscure glazing installed at the houses on Smith Street and the same would apply to the proposed dwellings. · No highway objections had been received. · The site was located within the older part of Cottingley and the application was not an uncommon proposal. · The modest two bedroom properties would have a bespoke design. · Natural materials would be used.
In response to Members’ queries, the Strategic Director, Regeneration confirmed that the nearest distance to other properties was 12.4 metres across the street to the gable wall. He stated ... view the full minutes text for item 15. |
