That the officer recommendation be upheld and the application be approved subject to the following conditions:-

 

Time Limit etc

 

1.  Approval of the details of the access, layout, scale, external appearance of the building(s), and the landscaping of the site (hereinafter called "the reserved matters") shall be obtained from the Local Planning Authority in writing before any development is commenced.

 

2.  Application for approval of the reserved matters shall be made to the Local Planning Authority before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission.

 

3.  The development hereby permitted shall be begun either before the expiration of five years from the date of this permission, or before the expiration of two years from the date of approval of the last of the reserved matters to be approved, whichever is the later.

 

Drainage

 

4.  The site shall be developed with separate systems of drainage for foul and surface water on and off site.

 

5.  No development shall take place until details of the proposed means of disposal of surface water drainage, including details of any balancing works and off-site works, have been submitted to and approved by the local planning authority. Furthermore, unless otherwise approved in writing by the local planning authority, there shall be no piped discharge of surface water from the development prior to the completion of the approved surface water drainage works.

 

Land Condition

 

6.  No development shall commence until intrusive site investigations have been carried out on site to establish the exact situation in respect of coal mining legacy features. The findings of the intrusive site investigations shall be submitted to the Local Planning Authority for consideration and approval in writing. The intrusive site investigations shall be carried out in accordance with authoritative UK guidance.

 

7.  Where the findings of the intrusive site investigations (required by condition 6 above) identify that coal mining legacy on the site poses a risk to surface stability, no development shall commence until a detailed remediation scheme to protect the development from the effects of such land instability has been submitted to the Local Planning Authority for consideration and approval in writing.  Following approval, the remedial works shall be implemented on site in complete accordance with the approved details.

Cycle Parking

 

9.  The development hereby approved shall include provision for cycle parking at the rate of 10% of the number of car parking spaces and full details shall be submitted to local planning authority for consideration as part of the reserved matters submission. The details agreed in writing shall be implemented on site and shall be available concurrent with the use of the new office building and shall be retained as such thereafter.

 

CHE/19/00784/FUL - CHANGE OF USE FROM DWELLING-HOUSE (USE CLASS C3) TO HOUSE IN MULTIPLE OCCUPANCY (USE CLASS C4) AT 20 ALBION ROAD, CHESTERFIELD FOR MR R CUSIMANO

 

In accordance with Minute No. 299 (2001/2002) Mr G Campbell (objector), Councillor Fordham (ward councillor and objector), Mr Cusimano (applicant) and Mr J Church (applicant’s agent) addressed the meeting.

 

That the officer recommendation be upheld and the application be refused for the following reasons:-

 

1.  The development is contrary to the best interests of the amenity of local residents. The proposed conversion to a property in multiple occupation would increase the likelihood of the property being occupied by short term tenancies which are more likely to attract a higher proportion of residents with social problems, chaotic lifestyles and no connection or affinity for their surroundings. The street is already suffering from serious anti-social behaviour issues which are causing significant impacts on the existing residents who fear for their safety and the proposal brings with it the prospects of a worsening situation. This is considered to be harmful to the safety of the local community and residential amenity in general and is considered to be contrary to the requirements of Policy CS2, CS15 and CS18 of the Chesterfield Borough Council Local Plan: Core Strategy 2011 – 2031 and the wider requirements of the NPPF 2019.

 

2.  The development is contrary to the best interests of pedestrian and highway safety. The proposed development would increase the likelihood of indiscriminate vehicle parking on the pavement and cycle route. This is considered to be harmful to the safe operation of the highway on a one way road of limited width. The proposal therefore fails to accord with the requirements of Policy CS18 (g) of the Chesterfield Borough Council Local Plan: Core Strategy 2011 – 2031, which expects developments to provide adequate and safe vehicle access and parking. The development would conflict with the wider requirements of the NPPF.   

 

Councillor Barr left the meeting at this point as he had not attended the site visits so was precluded from participating in the debate and making decisions on the applications to be determined by Committee.

 

Councillor Gilby returned to the meeting as he had attended the site visit for the following item.

 

CHE/19/00790/FUL - DETACHED DORMER DWELLING AND DETACHED GARAGE (REVISED LAYOUT PLAN RECEIVED 13.02.2020 SHOWING AMENDED PARKING LAYOUT AND DETACHED GARAGE REMOVED, AMENDED ELEVATIONS AND FLOOR PLANS RECEIVED 26.02.2020) AT LAND TO THE REAR OF 68 STORRS ROAD, CHESTERFIELD, DERBYSHIRE FOR MR STEPHEN MARTSCHENKO

 

In accordance with Minute No. 299 (2001/2002) Mrs Bradley (objector), Miss Johnson (objector) and Mr Martschenko (agent) addressed the meeting.

 

That the officer recommendation be upheld and the application be refused on the basis of the following:-

 

1.  The proposal does not comply with policies CS2 and CS18 of the Chesterfield Local Plan: Core Strategy 2011 – 2031 and the wider National Planning Policy Framework. The proposal will increase the density of development resulting in an overdevelopment of the plot in a manner which is at odds with the character and grain of the area and which does not accord with policy CS18 b and c and which is contrary to the ‘Successful Places’ SPD which requires development to reflect the character and grain of the settlement by virtue of layout and density. The development also conflicts with paragraph 122 d of the NPPF.

 

2.  The proposal will introduce an irregular built form within the defined building line of Storrs Road. Due to the height, scale and massing of the proposal and presence of a first floor window in the rear elevation, the proposed development is considered to have an adverse impact on the amenity of the adjoining neighbours at 1 Brookfield View Drive and does not accord with the principles of CS2, CS18 and the Successful Places SPD which states that proposal should not cause a loss of daylight, overshadowing or create overbearing relationships between buildings where this would be detrimental to residential amenity.

 

3.  The proposal will have an adverse impact on highway safety due to the lack of turning facility on site for larger service vehicles which may result in either vehicles reversing down the length of the driveway or vehicles waiting on Storrs Road for longer periods than usual contrary to the best interests of highway safety . The proposal therefore does not accord with the provisions of Core Strategy CS18 g) provide adequate and safe vehicle access and parking.

 

Councillors Gilby left the meeting at this point as he had not attended the site visits so was precluded from participating in the debate and making decisions on the applications to be determined by Committee.

 

Councillor Barr returned to the meeting.
