15.20 To receive and consider the following planning applications and put forward recommendations to the next Council Meeting or make decisions in accordance with the Committee’s delegated powers:
S19/0797
T Williamson 58 Horsegate, DSJ
Demolition of 2 industrial units and erection of a dwelling (Date for comments 21/6/19 no extension)
Approved
S19/0343
Carousel Nursery Land to the rear of 10 Bridge Street, DSJ
Proposed demolition of redundant abattoir buildings and erection of day nursery, formation of vehicle cross over on Park Road
Recommend Approval to Full Council
DSJPC have no objections in principle to a nursery in this location and accept that the 19th century abattoir is in a poor condition and could not economically be rebuilt. The paddock is designated in the conservation area as an important open space and this proposal would necessitate approx. 25% of this being lost. However, on the other hand this proposal would preserve the remaining 75% from future development.
It is noted that there now is pedestrian access from Bridge Street along the side of No 10 and that the other access further down Bridge Street, between No 16 and No 18 is now vehicular only. The one way system from Bridge Street to Park Road along the driveway which would be gated and only unlocked during nursery opening times, does not allow for pedestrian access.
Any member of the public can attend all Council and Committee meetings to see the work of the Council.
Full Council meetings are held on the last Thursday of each month which start with a 30 minute public forum for questions and issues to be raised.
S18/1715
Mr Winkless 110 Eastgate, DSJ
Erection of dwelling
Recommend Refusal to Full Council – The proposal is to build a dwelling within designated Flood Zone 1 i.e. Highly vulnerable to flooding. The proposed dwelling would be too close to and undermine the integrity of the flood bank even reducing the height of it. A flood risk assessment has been carried out but to date the all-important approval from The Environment Agency has not been obtained.
S19/0991
Mr & Mrs Bull 12 Tyghes Close, DSJ
Erection of single storey detached annexe
Approved under delegated powers with proposal of a condition being added stating that this should not be converted into a separate dwelling at any time in the future.
S19/0986
Mr & Mrs King 3 Knight Close, DSJ
Erection of single storey rear extension following removal of existing conservatory
Approved under delegated powers
16.20 To report the outcome of previous planning applications:
S19/0418
Land to East of Welland Bank Bridge, DSJ
Construction of footbridge located 30 metres west of the railway bridge over the River Welland
DSJPC – No comments or objections
SKDC – Grants Planning Permission
S19/0256
Mrs Griffiths 21 Broadgate Lane, DSJ
Outline application for the demolition of existing dwelling and erection of four dwellings with all matters reserved
DSJPC - Recommended refusal to Full Council with the following comments – The construction of 4 dwellings on this small site would be an overdevelopment. It would necessitate 2 of the dwellings being built in front of the building line. Car parking for 4 dwellings could force problems on this cramped site and lead to unwanted on street parking. Additionally the 2 dwellings proposed to be built at the rear of the site could cause overlooking issues with properties in Hereward Way.
SKDC – Grants Planning Permission
Appeal ref
APP/E2530/W/18/3217182
Land to rear of 34 & 36 Park Road, DSJ
Appeal is allowed and outline planning permission is granted for a residential development of 3 bungalows and garages in accordance with the terms of the application S18/1095.
S19/0749
Mr & Mrs Smillie 31 Broadgate Lane, DSJ
Single storey rear and side extension to existing dwelling
SKDC – Grants Planning Permission
DSJPC - Objections with the following comments - Limited information available with contradicting scale of drawings would indicate that this would be an overdevelopment of this small site.
S19/0612
Mr & Mrs Johnson 7 Locks Close, DSJ
Erection of first floor side extensions
DSJPC - Approved under delegated powers
SKDC – Grants Planning Permission
