1.  V/2021/0741, E Olden, Change of Use of Detached Garage to a Dog Groomers, 90 Nottingham Road, Selston

In accordance with the Council’s Policy for dealing with late matters in relation to planning applications, (Minute No. D4.17, 1993/94 refers), officers proceeded to give a verbal report as to additional comments received in relation to the application as follows:-

To provide further clarification an amended site plan had been submitted showing the detached garage accurately and providing further measurements of the front garden to show the additional 2 parking spaces to create 3 in total.

As an amended plan had been submitted it was recommended that condition 2 be amended to remove the proposed parking and access plan received 26/01/2022 and replace it with the amended parking and access plan received 22/02/2022.

The proposal now included a larger parking area that needed to be hard surfaced in a permeable material prior to the use commencing and it was recommended that a further condition be added.

Michelle Bell, an Objector, took the opportunity to address the Committee in respect of this matter. As per the agreed process, Members were then offered the opportunity to clarify any points raised during the submissions as required.

It was moved and seconded that the application be deferred for a site visit and submission of an accurate parking plan.
