CONSTRUCT A BRICK GARAGE
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------RECOMMENDATION: GRANT PLANNING PERMISSION WITH CONDITIONS
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL AND APPLICATION SITE
The application is in respect of the erection of a replacement garage at the
property. The application has been referred to committee as the applicant is a
Councillor.
The existing garage comprises a concrete sectional garage, with a shallow
pitch roof with asbestos sheeting. The proposed garage which is to be brick
built with tiled roof will be of similar size to the existing, although the height to
the ridge will be greater than the existing garage. The garage will have
overall dimensions of 3.1m x 7m with an eaves height of 2m and a ridge
height of 3m.
The garage is located close to the party boundary with No.10 King Road.
This neighbouring property has an existing prefabricated garage immediately
adjacent to the proposal.

POLICY & GUIDANCE
IPG Note 2 re Householder extensions and saved policy H13 of the adopted
Local Plan apply.
ISSUES
The main issues for consideration relate to the design and appearance of the
proposed garage, and whether it will result in any loss of residential amenity
to the neighbouring properties.
The proposed garage will be of brick and tiled construction. Whilst the
existing garage has been well maintained and painted, the proposed materials
of the proposed garage will be more in keeping with the applicants house
which is of traditional brick and tile construction. However, it would be
appropriate to condition the materials to ensure that they match the existing
house as closely as possible.
The proposed garage will be replacing an existing structure with a similar
footprint, and would be located immediately adjacent to the neighbouring
properties garage. It is not considered that the development will have any
detrimental impact upon the residential amenities of the neighbours, as it
would only result in an increase in ridge height and gable by approximately
0.7m.
CONCLUSION
The proposed garage would be replacement facility on site, and would be in
materials more in keeping with the existing dwelling. By virtue of the location
and orientation of the proposal and neighbouring properties, it is not
considered that the application will not result in any loss of residential
amenity. It is accordingly recommended that planning permission be granted
subject to the following conditions.
