Decision details
Land to the north of 15 Craigden - planning permission in principle for the erection of a two-storey 21 bed (circa) care home with associated access, car parking and landscaping
Decision Maker: Planning Development Management Committee (Visits)
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Decision:
Application unanimously refused for the following reasons:-
1. The proposal would result in an unacceptable impact on the privacy and residential amenity of the residents of Craigden, in particular at numbers 14 and 15. This would be contrary to Policy H1: Residential Areas; and
2. The proposal would result in the loss of valued natural green open space and trees and the erosion of the quality of the Green Space Network. It would create a tension between trees and future residents that is likely to result in the loss of further trees in the future. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy NE5: Trees and Woodland, Policy NE3: Urban Green Space, Policy NE1: Green Space Network and Policy D2: Landscape.
