THE PLANS LIST (00-04-48) PDF 352 KB To consider the planning applications contained in the list.
Minutes: RESOLVED that the following application be determined or otherwise dealt with in accordance with the various recommendations contained in the list namely:
(i) No 1 on the Plans List (18/01393/HOUSE – Erection of shed - 1 Locks Cottage, Whitnage ) be approved subject to conditions as recommended by the Head of Planning, Economy and Regeneration. (Proposed by the Chairman)
(b) No 2 on the Plans List (18/01243/LBC –Listed Building Consent for replacement windows - Middle Weeke Farm, Morchard Bishop).. The Conservation Officer outlined the contents of the report identifying the location of the listed property, the fact that the windows had been replaced with uPVC frames which were deemed to be of an inappropriate material. Photographs were shown of the property prior to the installation of the windows alongside a current photograph.
Consideration was given to:
· Whether the applicant was aware that the building was listed and whether not knowing was a material planning consideration. · The detail of the listing for the 16th Century dwelling and the fact that changes had been made to the dwelling in the 1960’s and the listing date of 1985. · The comments of the applicant with regard to the family not knowing that the building was listed and the fact that they did not check when the property was inherited. He had lived in the property for 20 years, work had taken place recently on the exterior of the property and the decision was taken at that time to install new windows as the previous ones were in a poor state of repair. The dwelling had been extensively changed over the years. · The views of the Ward Member with regard to the evolution of the dwellings which had once been thatched and that the installation of uPVC windows had been a mistake. · Whether policies should be adhered to and whether the planning act required amending. · Whether the replacement windows were in keeping with the listed property. · Whether further discussion should take place between officers and the applicant with regard to appropriate design and material use. · The officer’s view that the uPVC windows were of poor design and that there was a need to protect the listed building
It was therefore:
RESOLVED that the application be deferred to allow for further discussion to take place between the Conservation Officer and the applicant with regard to finding a scheme (with suitable design and materials) that would be acceptable to both parties.
(Proposed by Cllr P J Heal and seconded by Cllr F W Letch)
