(Note:
An amendment sheet in relation to P2016/0271 was circulated prior to the
meeting, on which the Chair had allowed sufficient time for Members to read, in
respect of application items on the published agenda, the Chairperson had
permitted urgent circulation/consideration thereof at today’s meeting, the
particular reasons and circumstances being not to further delay the planning
process, unless the Committee itself wanted to defer any applications and to
ensure that Members take all extra relevant information into account before
coming to any decision at the meeting).
RESOLVED: |
That
following the site visit on the 13 September 2016 and having considered the
views of those present, contrary to the Officer recommendation as detailed in
the circulated report, Application No.
P2016/0271 be refused for the following Reason: The
proposal by virtue of the constrained scale of the site together with the
excessive size of the development will result in an over development of the
site, which will in turn result in an unacceptable overbearing impact to the
detriment of the amenities of neighbouring residents. The proposal is therefore considered to be
contrary to the objectives of Policy BE1 of the Neath Port Talbot Local
Development Plan. |
