No declarations of interest were made.

RESOLVED

that the minutes of the meeting of the Planning Committee held on 6 December 2023, be received and approved as a correct record.

1.   V/2022/0888, Mr B McCulloch, Outline Application With Some Matters Reserved for a Dwelling, Land off Munks Avenue, Hucknall

Cllr. Nicholas Parvin, as the Ward Member, took the opportunity to address the Committee in respect of this matter.

It was moved by Councillor Rachel Madden and seconded by Councillor Helen-Ann Smith that the officer’s recommendation contained within the report be rejected and planning consent be refused.

Reasons for rejecting officers’ recommendation:

The proposed development by reason of its siting and scale would have a detrimental impact on the amenities of neighbouring properties and be out of character with the area in general. It is considered that the proposed dwelling does not meet the space between buildings standards in the Council's Supplementary Planning Documents and is therefore contrary to Policy HG5 and ST1 of the Ashfield Local Plan Review 2002 and chapter 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 

For the motion:

Councillors Jamie Bell, Jodine Cronshaw, Samantha Deakin, Vicki Heslop,

Rachel Madden, Sarah Madigan, Andy Meakin, John Smallridge and

Helen-Ann Smith.

Against the motion:

None.

Abstentions:

None.

It was moved and seconded that the application be refused as per officer’s recommendation.

The meeting adjourned at 10.50am and reconvened at 10.57am.  During the adjournment, Councillor Samantha Deakin left the meeting due to feeling unwell.
