Application Date:

Application Notes:
The Town Council wishes to object to this application on the following grounds: • This constitutes an overdevelopment of site • There is a lack of usable public open space with much of the allocated space being taken up with a balancing pond • Whilst the area was previously private, it afforded residents with significant amenity value, particularly with extensive tree cover. • The removal of 41 trees from the site has a detrimental impact on the biodiversity of the site • The buildings to the boundary edge and particularly at 3-storey level when all other neighbouring properties are traditionally 2-storey creates an overbearing presence in the area and one where existing residents’ right to privacy is severely compromised.
