18/01333/FUL: Retrospective planning application for the change of use of dwelling to holiday let and retention of outbuilding pdf icon PDF 190 KB

The Grange 69 Church Street Donisthorpe Swadlincote Derby DE12 7PX

Minutes:

The Planning and Development Team Manager presented the report to Members

 

Ms A McManus, Agent, addressed the Committee highlighting that there had only been 3 complaints about the use of the property, 2 of which were on the same night and the party was asked to leave. She stated that the site manager was on call 24hrs a day and was 30 minutes away, that all the correct safety certificates were in place and that the restored property would provide high quality accommodation for tourists wishing to visit the area.

 

Councillor R Ashman, Ward Member, addressed the Committee highlighting that a number of residents had raised concerns over the use of the property, that as the application was retrospective would the applicant abide by the conditions set and that no staff were present during the duration of the occupation to control noise levels and behaviour especially at night. He asked that should Members be minded to approve the application residents were provided with information about how to complain and to ensure that all fire and health and safety regulations were complied with.

 

In determining the application, Members had sympathy for the neighbouring residents and felt that a member of staff should be on site 24hrs a day to supervise the guests; however it was felt that there were no material planning reasons to refuse the application. Further consideration would need to be given to the precise wording of the condition in relation to outdoor activity between the hours of 11pm and 9am.

 

It was moved by Councillor J Bridges and seconded by Councillor G Jones.

 

Councillor M Specht requested the recorded vote.

 

The Chairman then put the motion to the vote. A recorded vote having been requested, the voting was follows:
