Schedule of Applications
Additional documents:
Minutes: Application 22/00688 - Two residential units within the curtilage of the main house approved under application 18/00051/FUL, removal of approved garage outbuilding and associated amended driveway and landscape enhancements at Land At New Covert, Ewen, Gloucestershire.
Major Developments and Appeals Manager introduced the application that had been deferred from the Planning and Licencing Committee Meeting 14 September 2022, and reminded the Committee that the deferral had been made to enable the applicant to continue in negotiation with the Council with pre-commencement conditions. These negotiations had concluded successfully (for conditions 4 and 19) and no further information was required from the applicant prior to the commencement of the development to satisfy these.
The Committee noted the original application (18/00051/FUL) was for a single dwelling, and the current application was for three dwellings, with the two additional residential units being within the vicinity of the main house, and that the development was now being considered under policy DS3 as it was now considered to be part of the (non-principal settlement) village of Ewen.
The Major Developments and Appeals manager summarised the development’s location, site and dwelling designs and presented site and location maps, photographs and illustrations to provide context for what was being proposed.
The Committee noted that 60-75% of the site was existing woodland and new native-tree, shrub and meadow planting would increase biodiversity by 31%.
The Committee noted that each of the three dwellings were highly energy efficient with Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) ratings in excess of the 100 maximum.
The following people addressed the Committee: Councillor Tony Berry – Ward Member
The Committee noted the proximity of high tension wires did not represent a risk to health of occupants of the proposed development.
The Committee noted that the original single dwelling’s ‘outstanding design in an exceptional location’ consideration was less significant, now that the development had been considered to be part of the village of Ewan, and was being assessed under policy DS3.
The Committee noted that although the applicant had described the two additional dwellings as annexes to the main, house, they had been considered as new dwellings for the purposes of addressing relevant policies and therefore further development or extensions to the properties without the need for further planning permission had been prevented by the removal of permitted development rights in the recommended conditions.
The Committee noted that all of the land at the development was privately owned and no public access had been had been applied for.
The Committee noted that should either of the two additional dwellings be sold, the requirements and conditions in the application would remain in force and remain the responsibility of the relevant land owner.
Councillor Jepson proposed and Councillor Trotter seconded that the application should be REFUSED due to the two additional dwellings taking away and lessening the ‘exceptional site and outstanding design’ of the main building.
