Resolved
That planning permission be REFUSED due to the following reasons:
|
Policy
CS16 (Shops and Commerce) of the Dacorum Core Strategy
supports development proposals that promote a diverse evening
economy in the town centres of the Borough including Berkhamsted.
This is provided the social and environmental impacts are
controlled. Policy CS12 (c) (Quality of Site Design) of the Dacorum
Core Strategy aims to ensure that on each site a proposed
development should avoid disturbance to surrounding properties.
Policy CS32 of the Dacorum Core Strategy specifies that any
development proposals which would cause harm from a significant
increase in pollution by virtue of any various emissions including
noise will not be permitted. Paragraph 123 of the National Planning
Policy Framework requires planning decisions to avoid noise giving
rise to significant impacts on health and the quality of
life.
The
proposed beer garden adjoins existing dwellings. Its proposed use,
based upon the evidence available, would give rise to significant
noise and disturbance which would be seriously detrimental to the
residential amenity of the adjoining dwellings. The proposed beer
garden would therefore be contrary to Policies CS12 (c) , CS16 and CS32 of Dacorum Core Strategy and
paragraph 123 of the National Planning Policy
Framework.
|
|
|
|
|
Policy CS8 (h) of the Dacorum Core Strategy
expects that all new development should provide sufficient, safe
and convenient parking . CS12 (b) of the
Dacorum Core Strategy expects that proposed developments should
provide sufficient parking. Notwithstanding the expectations of
saved Policy 58 ( Private Parking Provision) of Dacorum Borough
Local Plan that operational and customer on sites will be kept to a
minimum, the provision of the proposed beer garden would result in
the permanent loss of long established parking at the site which
is now available for staff and customers in Berkhamsted
Town Centre location where there is a high demand for parking,
resulting in further obstructions on the highway, prejudicial to
highway safety which is expected to be maintained under Policy CS8
( h) of Dacorum Core Strategy. The development would therefore be
contrary to Policies CS8(h) and CS12(a)
and (b) of the Dacorum Core Strategy.

Minutes:
R
Herbert introduced the report and said it had been referred to
committee due to the contrary view of Tring Town Council. S Whelan
confirmed that all relevant letters had been sent to the
residents.
Nigel Osier spoke in support of the application.
Darren McDermott, Claire Westbrook and Lee Filby spoke in objection to this
application.
Members were concerned about the absence of affordable housing
in Tring. R Herbert said that after a High Court decision,
developments under 10 dwellings are not required to provide
affordable housing.
It
was proposed by Councillor Birnie and seconded by Councillor Fisher
to grant the application in line with the officer’s
recommendation.

Resolved
That planning permission be REFUSED due to the following reason:
The
proposed backland development would
represent an overdevelopment of the site and would cause
significant harm to the character of the area. The proposed
development would result in a contrived and cramped form of
development which would be out of character with the surrounding
area. The proposals are therefore contrary to Core Strategy
policies CS11 and CS12, Tring Character Area (TCA) 13 of the Saved
Local Plan, and the NPPF.

Minutes:
A
Parrish introduced the report. It had been referred to the
committee due to the contrary views of Berkhamsted Town
Council.
Councillor C Wyatt-Lowe arrived at 8.21pm and so took no part in
the voting of this item.
The Chairman declared he was the ward councillor for this
application so reserved his right to speak.
Richard Butler spoke in support of this application.
Adam Ralton and Neil Lawrence spoke in objection to this

Berkhamsted Town Councillor Anthony Armytage spoke in objection to this
application.

officer’s recommendation be overturned and the application be
refused.
Vote
For: 13
Against: 0
Abstained: 0
Resolved
That planning permission be REFUSED due to the following reasons:
The proposed site is in an area where parking is at
a premium and opportunities for further on-street parking are
extremely limited. The frontage of the site onto Station Road
comprises an area of informal on-street parking within the adopted
highway. The proposed development, by reason of the provision of
vehicular accesses to serve the development would result in a
significant loss of existing available on-street parking and its
displacement into surrounding streets, causing further congestion
and difficulties for residents of the area. The proposal would be
harmful to the established amenities of residents and is therefore
contrary to Policy CS12 of the Dacorum Core Strategy September 2013
and saved Policy 51(d) of the Dacorum Borough Local Plan
1991-2011.
Due to the limited depth of the site and
significant change in levels the Council is not satisfied that the
proposed development can be satisfactorily accommodated on the site
to ensure high quality design and living conditions for future
occupiers as required by the NPPF. The proposed development will
appear cramped and due to the substandard garden depths and
requirement for substantial retaining structures will provide a
poor level of amenity and living conditions for future occupiers.
The proposal would therefore constitute an overdevelopment of the
site and is therefore contrary to the NPPF, Policy CS12 of the
Dacorum Core Strategy September 2013 and advice and guidance in
Saved Appendix 3 of the Dacorum Borough Local Plan
1991-2011.

No development shall take place until samples and
details of the materials to be used in the construction of the
external surfaces of the development hereby permitted shall have
been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning
authority. Development shall be carried
out in accordance with the approved details.
Reason: To
ensure a satisfactory appearance to the development in accordance

No development shall take place until full details
of both hard and soft landscape works shall have been submitted to
and approved in writing by the local planning
authority. These details shall
include:
·
hard surfacing materials;
·
means of enclosure;
·
soft landscape works which shall include planting

schedules of plants, noting species, plant sizes and proposed

Additional documents:
Minutes:
R
Marber introduced the report and said it had been referred to the
committee due to the contrary views of Chipperfield Parish
Council.
Hayden Todd spoke in support of the application.
John Dickenson and Diane Wass spoke
in objection to the application and were speaking on behalf of
seven objectors.
Members discussed the increase in property size (around 85%) as
a result of extensions which would be out of character in relation
to the surrounding area and size of neighbouring properties. Also,
the extensions (emphasis placed on front gable roof form and rear
dormer windows) would be excessively large and close to
neighbouring boundaries, dominating the visual appearance of the
Chipperfield conservation area. There was also concern and
discussion around living conditions of The Old Cottage, especially
as the carport would be located south of their front windows. The
Old Cottage does not feature many windows to the side and front
elevations, and thus is reliant heavily on the windows to the rear
which would be most affected by the proposed car port.
It
was proposed by Councillor Whitman and seconded by Councillor Clark
to grant the application in line with the officer’s
recommendation.
Vote

Against: 6
Abstained: 4
Having there been no majority to grant this application in line

officer’s recommendation be overturned and the application be
refused.
Vote
For: 6
Against: 2
Abstained: 6
Resolved
That planning permission be REFUSED due to the following reason:
The
cumulative impact of the proposed extensions by reason of
their bulk and scale would constitute overdevelopment of the
site and result in a dominating form of development when viewed
from the wider area. This would fail to preserve or enhance the
character and appearance of the Chipperfield conservation area and
designated small village located in the Green Belt contrary to
policies CS6, CS11 and CS12 of the Core Strategy (2013), saved
appendix 7 of the Local Plan (1991) and the NPPF (2012).
The
proposed mass in conjunction with height and close proximity of the
car port to the front habitable window of the neighbouring property
would result in a harmful impact upon the residential amenity of
The Old Cottage; contrary to policy CS12 of the Core Strategy
(2013), saved appendix 3 of the Local Plan (1991) and the NPPF
(2012).
