P14/S2562/FUL - 1 Mill Lane, Chalgrove, OX44 7SL Demolition of existing outbuildings. Erection of two detached dwellings with attached double garages. Erection of double detached garage within retained garden off 1 Mill Lane. Additional documents: Minutes: The committee considered application P14/S2562/FUL to demolish existing outbuildings; erect two detached dwellings with attached double garages; and to erect a double detached garage within the retained garden of 1 Mill Lane, Chalgrove, OX44 7SL.
The planning officer reported that, since the publication of the agenda, the following amendments to the conditions have been included:
1. No conversion of garage accommodation without planning permission. 2. The surfacing to any parking area should be permeable paving. 3. The turning and parking areas to be retained. 4. No surface water drainage onto the highway.
The officer also reported that a ministerial statement has been published on 26 March 2015 which has withdrawn the Code for Sustainable Homes. In light of this statement, it was proposed that condition 4, requiring Code Level 4, should no longer be imposed.
Anne Pritchard, a representative of Chalgrove Parish Council, spoke objecting to the application.
Martyn Lynam, Janet Lynam and James Mitchell, local residents, spoke objecting to the application.
Matthew and John Hornsby, the applicants, spoke in support of the application.
David Turner, the local ward councillor, spoke objecting to the application.
Contrary to the officer’s recommendation to approve the application, the committee did not agree that the proposal was considered neighbourly due to overlooking; and the lack of clarity concerning the potential for flooding.
A motion, moved and seconded to refuse the application, was declared carried on being put to the vote.
RESOLVED: to refuse planning permission for application P14/S2562/FUL at 1 Mill Lane, Chalgrove, OX44 7SL, for the following reasons:
1. That having regards to the orientation of no. 1 Mill Lane which has its principal elevation facing south and includes full length French windows at first floor, the development will result in overlooking into the private rear garden of plot 1. In addition, the first floor windows of no 4 High Street will look directly into the private rear garden of plot 2 resulting in an unsatisfactory level of amenity for the future occupiers of the two new dwellings. This would be contrary to policies D3, D4 and H4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan. 2. The site lies within Flood Zone 1. The Environment Agency has indicated its intention to reconsider the flood zones for Chalgrove in/by 2017. The determination of this planning application is considered premature in light of this proposed review. Insufficient information is currently available to demonstrate that the development of this site for two dwellings will not exacerbate existing surface water flooding problems within the vicinity of the site. As such, the proposal is contrary to advice within the National Planning Policy Framework.
