Location: 24, COPPENHALL LANE, CREWE, CHESHIRE, CW2 8TT

Application No: 21/1005N
Proposal: First floor side addition
Location: 1A, RUSSET CLOSE, CREWE, CW1 4FR

Members commented that the application is one of a series associated with the site and there is lack of clarity and lack of consistency relating to what has planning consent, what is already in place on site and do the submitted plans reflect these considerations. It is recommended and requested that the planning officer carries out a thorough site visit of the property to ensure what is on site has consent and is correctly represented in the planning application documents and plans

RESOLVED: That the committee objects to the application on the following grounds:
i. The proposals constitute over development of the site
ii. Loss of amenity due to the scale and proximity to the boundary with rear neighbours
iii. Lack of planning history transparency and consistency
