5. APPEAL REGARDING KINDER COTTAGE, BICKERLEY ROAD
To consider an appeal by Mr & Mrs Buckley regarding Application 07/90578 (Report E attached). The Town Council observation was:- Permission (1) - note the Planning Officer’s observations, but given the nature of existing diverse pattern of development not overly concerned, and not concerned about the hard standing which would not be obtrusive in the members' opinion.
6. APPEAL REGARDING LITTLE GATTON, 103 LINFORD ROAD, POULNER
To consider an appeal by Mr Smith regarding Application 08/92939 (Report F attached). The Town Council observation was:- Refusal (4) - Members were concerned that the protected Yew tree would make most of the gardens unuseable and cause lack of light. Despite a new proposal to set the new terrace further back from the road, some of the comments made with regard to the previous application 07/90887 were reiterated: "There is concern about the impact the proposal would have on the character of the lane; the insufficent car parking and the increase in pedestrian and traffic movement in this narrow lane. There is also concern about the density, which would appear to be overdevelopment in this semi-rural area."
7. SITE OF THE OLD FORGE, LINFORD ROAD, POULNER
To consider the request of the developer to rename The Old Forge site ‘Old Forge Mews’.
