11/1239M - Land off Tudor Drive, Prestbury, Macclesfield, SK10 4UU: New Dwelling with Detached Garage and Associated Access, Hardstanding and Landscaping for Professor Upton Hunter Estates Ltd pdf icon PDF 693 KB

To consider the above application.

Minutes:

Consideration was given to the above application.

 

(Councillor J P Findlow, the Ward Ward Councillor, Parish Councillor Mrs Jackson, representing Prestbury Parish Council, Mrs Everatt, an objector, Mr Taylor, an objector and Mrs Emery, the agent for the applicant attended the meeting and spoke in respect of the application).

 

RESOLVED

 

That the application be refused for the following reasons:-

 

1. The proposed development would not be sympathetic to the character of the established Low Density Housing Area by virtue of the scale and form of the new dwellinghouse, the density of development within the plot, and the removal of existing tree and ground cover of public amenity value.  The proposed development is therefore contrary to policy H12 of the Macclesfield Borough Local Plan 2004.

 

2. The proposed development by virtue of its size and siting would result in the direct loss of a number of existing trees, three of which are the subject of a Tree Preservation Order.  The loss of these trees is considered unacceptable because of the impact upon the general amenity and character of the area in which the application site is located.  Whilst mitigation measures have been put forward, these are not considered to provide an identifiable net environmental gain.  The mitigation measures would be located to the rear of the site where they would not be highly visible from public vantage points and therefore would not offer the same amenity value as the existing trees that are proposed to be removed.  The development is therefore contrary to policy DC9 of the Macclesfield Borough Local Plan 2004.

 

(This decision was contrary to the Officers recommendation of approval).
