PLANNING APPLICATIONS:
|
|
|
DC/07/01427 - |
Mr J Bird - Conversion and change of use of existing
farm buildings to shooting lodge and construction of
vehicular access and access road at Rectory Farm,
Beverley Road, Leven.
This application was discussed at the Meeting held in
April. This was strongly supported by the Parish
Council. Complaints have been received from residents
regarding the removal of the hedge at the front of
Rectory Farm where the driveway is to be made and as Mr
Bird was at the Meeting. S Nicholson proposed, Mrs J
Gibson seconded and all were in favour of the Chair
closing the Meeting to allow Mr & Mrs Pashby to speak.
The Meeting closed at 8.37pm. Mr Pashby was concerned
that a hedgerow had been removed and a clay bank was in
its place. Mr Bird advised that the hedge was very
sparse and consisted mainly of buttery bushes. The clay
mound is to be grassed and specimen trees are to be
planted on top of the clay mound. |
|
DC/07/02011 - |
Mr R Southwell - erection of no. 12 dwellings at land to
the east of The Orchard, Leven
Mr Southwell advised that this was the last pocket of
land that was available for development on and that
there was already planning approval for 5 dwellings. A
main sewer is already running through the land. If
planning was approved, because there was no area for “an
open” space for children to play, both Mr Southwell
and Mr Bird would make a substantial contribution
towards a skate park. The price of the properties would
range between £275,000 and £340,000 approximately. The
houses would take between 2 ½ and 3 years to complete.
Mrs Underwood advised that if planning was allowed she
would have 6 properties overlooking her garden to the
eastern edge of her garden. The Meeting re-opened at
9.28pm. The Clerk is to ask for the application to be
deferred until further information is obtained regarding
the application approved for 5 houses. |
