SCHEDULE OF DEVELOPMENT APPLICAT IONS, WITH DIRECTOR' S RECOMMENDAT IONS, FOR DETERMINAT ION AT PH IS COMMITTEE

1. Roc/257/86 HOCKLEY

LAND REAR OF 260, PLUMBE ROW AVENUE, HOCKLEY

Erect detached house. D.A. & L.J. Loveland, do 24, The Bramleys, Rochford, Essex.

RECOMMENDATION: REFUSAL, FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:

1. The proposal involves the subdivision of part of the rear gardens of existing dwellings which front onto Plumberow Avenue. The local planning authority have previously permitted a curtilage subdivision and the erection of a substantial dwelling fronting Wood Avenue and considers that a further dwelling would present an unduly cramped development detracting from the rural character and appearance of the adjoining rural area which is situated within the Metropolitan Green Belt and the amenities and outlook of the existing dwellings.

2. The proposal by reason of the layout and block form of the dwelling within the application site represents overdevelopment of the site, resulting in a density of development and rear amenity areas incompatible with that of the adjoining development.

3. The proposal if permitted would reduce the existing rear amenity space of the existing dwelling No. 260, Plumberow Avenue, well below that of adjoining established development in Plumberow Avenue and the remaining rear amenity area would be incompatible with those of the adjoining dwellings. 4. The proposal involves development which involves the erection of a building over an approved septic tank which serves No. 260, Pluniberow Avenue, Mo deta.1s have been submitted or approved to satisfy the local planning authority that satisfactory alternative arrangements for the disposal of foul drainage from No. 260, Plumberow hvenue have or would be made.

000981 I Ir

REPORT: This proposal seeks a further subdivision of existing curtilages in Plumberow Avenue to form a building plot fronting Wood Avenue.

Due to the limited size of the plot, its relationship to the existing and reduced curtilages, and the size of dwelling proposed it is considered that the development be unduly cramped and intrusive on neighbours outlook and amenity.

2. ROC/378/86 HIJLLBRIDGE

POOLEHURST AND PARK COUNTRY CLUB, POOLES LANE, HULLBRIDGE Outline application for residential development of land and construction of new access road. W.T. Caton, do Abbotts (East Anglia) Ltd., 22, South Street, Rochford, Essex.

Site Area: O.7ha. (1.73 acres)

RECOMNENDAT ION: APPROVAL, SUBJECT TO: 1. Std. Cond. la — Reserved matters to be approved. 2. Std. Cond. 2 - Commence in five years or two years. 3. Std. Cond. 4 - Hedgerows to be retained.

4. This permission conveys no approval to a 4B Estate road referred to on the application documents submitted on 14th May, 1986. I I 5. A 1.8 metre wide footway shall be provided along the entire site frontage to Pooles Lane and such a footpath shall be set back to 'aflow a 5.5 meres wide carriageway in Pooles Lane, measured from the existing channel edg on the southern side of Pooles Lane. 6. Any estate road constructed within the site shall be provided with a 4.5 metre x 53 metre clear visibility splays withap the limits of the site at the junction with Pooles Lane.

1000982 EEPORP: This site, currently used as a country club, is situated within an area allocated for residential development. Bearing in mind the proposed restrictions in the Local Plan for development along the river frontage i.e. low density development, it would seem appropriate to indicate to the applicants that the local planning authority would wish to see only low density housing on this site, and it is suggested that a letter accompanies any planning consent that Members decide to grant.

No details have been submitted to indicate the proposed layout or number or type of residential units and it is understood that outline permission is required to enable the land to be sold. Subject to the density being kept fally low, there are no town planning objections to residential development of the site and the suggested conditions provide the local planning authority with full control over the type of development which may be approved when details are eventually submitted.

Only fruit trees and a few small Willows, Hawthorns, etc. exist on the site, together with a pond and club buildings.

Anglian Water has no objections to the proposal. The Hullbridge Parish Council feels that no development should be permitted which has a higher density than that of the surrounding development. The County Surveyor has no objections subject to details of any roads and accesses being submitted in due course and subject to adequate sight splays and improvements to Pooles Lane where it abuts the site. The Director of Health and Housing has no adverse comments to make.

REPORT: This item was deterred at the meeting of 5th June, 1986 for further consideration. • The proposal involves the relocation of the existing surgery (a group practie) at 65, High Road to this site which is closer to the town centre. I Responses from neighbours are as follows :— 8, Hilltop Close — no'objection in principle but concerned with lack of parking space which would add to existing on—street parking problems.

10, 'I - similar objections as above and refers to increased volume of traffic. Subsequently asks that application be refused as the present site has approximately 8-9 parking spaces. 4 1 000984 5, Gordon Roughly Court — in favour of proposal.

14, " "" — no objections but would wish for access to High Road from the Court.

12, " " " — in favour.

6, Hedingham House, — no objections.

" " 8, — no objections.

6, High Road - no objections.

8, " " — no objections.

" " 9, — No objection in principle subject to (i) no patients parking of vehicles; (ii) no trespass from patients within European Kitchens own parking spaces. Concerned with right of way being affected.

10, " " - concerned with on-street parking problems. 102, Welr Gardens — strongly protests at the lack of parking, etc. The Director of Health and Housing has no adverse comments and Anglian Water have no objections. Rayleigh Civic Society has commented that the car parking provision is inadequate and should be increased to at least twelve unless some arrangement can be made with European Kitchens. The County Surveyor has directed the imposition of three standard W conditions. An illustration showing possible views of the surgery will be available for Members' examination prior to the meeting. The normal parking standard for this form of development is one space for each practitioner - four in this case and a district nurse — and one space for every two members of staff present and two visitors' car parking spaces for each consulting room - four in this case. It will be apparent that the number of spaces is minimal, although the Agent has now increased the number to eight. Furthermore, the applicants have stated that :—' 1. there are never likely to be more than three doctors consulting at one time;

009985 2. on three mornings a week there are three doctors; two mornings a week - two doctors; each evening — two doctors and, on some occasions, only one;

3. the district nurse attends after the doctors have finished consulting and the health visitor attends in the afternoon before the evening surgery commences;

4. tjaere are three staff who regularly use cars although it is rare for more than one of them to be present at the same time.

The nearby Castle Road Public Car Park could be used by patients and the Agent has stressed that the fears of the residents in Hilltop Close can be overcome as there will be no pedestrian or vehicular access to that road which might have encouraged on—' street parking of patients' cars. Members may be aware that double yellow lines are in existence up to a point adjacent to the site access.

6. ROC/247/86 RAYLEIGH LAND ADJ. 4, THE BAILEY, RAYLEIGH

Outline application to erect a detached bungalow. J.R., L.M. & R.D. Graham, do R.D. Graham, 32, Crown Hill, Rayleigh, Essex. S Frontage: 25m. Depth: 20m. approx. (width 7Th. approx.) Density: lOd.p.h.

RECOMt4ENDAT ION: REFUSAL, FOR THE FOLLOWING_REASONS:

1. The proposed development would appear unduly cramped and its proximity to existing curtilages in Mount Close would result in an unacceptable loss of amenity to the adjacent occupiers. This could be amplified by the difference in ground levels.

2. The erection of a bungalow would be out of keeping with the form and character of the existing dwelling in The Bailey.

S 3. The proposal is contrary to Policy LT.3. of the Rochford . Draft District Local Plan which states that the District Planning Authority will encourage the retention of existing private playing fields, sports grounds and open spaces. The Rochford District Local Plan Rayleigh Town Centre Inset shows that part of the site is within an area of private open space. Furthermore, the proposal is close to and will have an adverse effect on the setting of Rayleigh Castle Ancient Monument No. 39.

4. The site is an important foraging ground for badgers from setts on adjacent land and the loss of this foraging ground will be detrimental to the badger population.

5. The development of the site would require the removal of established hedgerows at the end of The Bailey which for!as an important visual feature in the setting of The Bailey.

REPORT:

The site is zoned residential within the Approved Review Development Plan biit the extreme north western corner falls within an area designated as Private Open Space in the Rochtord District Local Plan. It is within the Rayleigh Conservation Area as extended and the Scheduled Ancient Monument of Rayleigh Castle.

Three previous applications for residential development have been refused, one of which was dismissed on appeal. The most recent application (R0C/395/85) was for a detached house in a slightly different position and was refused on grounds of overlooking properties in Mount Close and removal of established hedgerows. At that time the Committee indicated that assistance would be given in an attempt to overcome the problems. The applicants now seek to overcome these objections by revising the siting, restricting the development to a bungalow and removing part of the hedgerow.

However, an earlier application (ROC/374/79) was for a split level bungalow sited in line with properties in The Bailey With detached garages near the turning head of The Bailey. Refusal on grounds of the restricted plot width making it incompatible with the form and character of The Bailey, overlooking of Mount Close dwellings and removal of established hedgerows was supported on appeal. The Inspector felt that the development proposed was not in harmony with existing properties in The Bailey and that an effort was being made to squeeze a dwelling onto a small site as an afterthought.

000989 Consultations: National Trust - object because the development is close to Ancient Monument No. 39, will have an adverse effect on the Trusts' nearby property and conflics with Rochford District Local Plan Policy LT4 (retention of prhkate open space). Rayleigh Civic Society — consider that the proposal does not overcome previous reasons for refusal.

County Planner — development appears cramped. Essex Badger Control — object as site adjoins badger sett and foraging area. Local residents in The Bailey, Mount Close and Castle Drive have submitted representations against the proposal on grounds of intrusions, loss of privacy, detriment to existing enviroment, natural features and wildlife, adverse effect on Ancient Monument, undesirable traffic/parking implications. This is a very brief summary of the main heads of representation. The more detailed comments of residents can be reported verbally at the meeting if Members wish together with a letter from the applicant contesting the objections raised.

Retention of 6ft. high fence and enclosure of land for garden extension.

Raymond Smith, 45, Nevern Road, Rayleigh, Essex.

RECOtTh1ENDAT- ION: REFUSAL AND THE SECRETARY TO THE COJJNC IL BE AUTHORISED TO TAKE ALL NECESSARY ACT ION INCLUD ING THE ISSUE AND SERVING OF NOTICES AND ACTION IN THE COURTS TO SECURE THE REMEDYING OF' THE BREACH OF PLANNING CONTROL SUBJECT OF THIS APPLICAT ION. 1. PETs area of open space significantly contributes to the visual amenity of the adjoining residential estate and its enclosure fundamentally reduces the open aspect of this part of the estate. 2. If granted permission this development wopld create' a precedent for other similar enclosures elsewhere on this estate and in the locality generally. Such development would result in serious loss of other open space to the detriment of visual amenity.

000990 REPORT: This application has generated strong objections from six residents in the area together with three letters of support. The objections raised support the recommended reasons for refusal. The Whitehouse Residents Association and the Rayleigh Civic Society express similar views. The County Surveyor has no objection to the enclosure subject to the fence being sited clear of a 2.lm. x 30m. vision splay and confirms that the site is not maintable highway. The original planning permission granted in 1957 (Ref. No. RAY/Si/Si) require areas to be laid out and maintained to ensure a satisfactory appearance to the estate. Whilst in isolation this fencing is not unsightly the arguement concerning possible precedent is appreciated and, on balance1 the • recommendation made. If, nonetheless, Members are In favour of approval it is suggested that a condition be imposed requiring the parking space at the vehicular entrance to the site to be increased to Sm. in depth.

RECOMMENDATION:__APPROVAL, SUBJECT TO:

1. Std. Cond. 3 - Commence in five years.

2. Parking facilities shall be provided within the site to the satisfaction of the local planning authority.

REPORT: "Foxhunters1' is a large detached dwelling in the Green Belt, at one time used as a country club, which would provide five double bedrooms and a single staff bedroom. No adverse comment has been received from either the Social Services Department or the Fire Officer. Representations have been received from the occupiers of 399 and 401, Rectory Road who are concerned that (a) the private foul sewerage system which runs across their property will become blocked more frequently as a result of the development and (b) the development will lead to pressure for further extensions to the property. The occupier of No. 401 is also concerned about the additional traffic using an access near to a hazardous junction and the lack of a footpath fronting the property.

The occupier of Potash Cottage opposite the site protests against the development because of traffic problems. Mr. Renouf of Renouf's Restaurant objects on the grounds of traffic hazard and • the need to prevent commercial development in this area. The County Surveyor has no objection but directs that adequate parking facilities are provided on the site.

Vernon Collard, do RB Signs Servioes (UK) Ltd., Leavesden House, Leavesden Road, Watford, Herts.

RECOMMENDAT ION: REFUSAL, FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:

1. The proposed sign by reasons of its size, colour and method of illumination, would produce an unduly dominant and visually obtrusive feature in the street scene at this point in the Rayleigh Conservation Area to the detriment of its character and appearance.

2. The proposed illuminated fascia sign would result in an excessive and confusing display of advertising material on the face of this building to the detriment of the visual quality of this part of the Rayleigh Conservation Area.

REPORT: A previous application for a fascia sign was refused for the suggested reasons on 27th April, 1984 (ROC/l45/84/AD). The proposed sign is not materially difference in appearance or size.

9 12. ROC/485/86 HULLBRIDGE 6, KINGSMAN FARM ROAD, HULLERIDGE

Erect three storey house with integral garage. Mr. & Mrs. Steve Adams, do Architectural Services, Oriel House, 53, Elm Road, Leigh-on—Sea, Essex. Frontage: l5m; Depth: 120m.

RECOMMENDATION: REFUSAL, FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: The proposed development is situated within the riverside settlement of Kingsmans Farm Road, Hullbridge within which Rochford District Local Plan Policy 117 applies. Paragraph (B)(i) of that Policy states that development "shall be restricted so that continuous residential occupancy relates to one permanent dwelling unit only per plot". In the opinion of the local planning authority, the proposal is for two dwelling units which exceeds the provisions of the aforementioned Policy.

REPOWP; Outline permission for a detached dwelling was granted on 20th 1985 with conditions restricting its use to holiday • December,accommodation and prohibiting the sub-division of the plot (R0C/821/85). a' This application is for a three storey dwelling and Rochford District Plan Policy H7 provides for full residential occupancy restricted to one dwelling per plot. The "dwelling" proposed is, in fact, a semi—detached pair because there are two self— contained units with separate entrances, living rooms, kitchens and bedrooms. The smaller unit is presumed to be a granny annexe, with only the larger unit having a dining room, but no information is given to this effect. Two units within this plot are contrary to the policy which is to be operated in this area. Whereas "granny annexes" are normally acceptable in residential areas, the unique policy applicable to the Kingsmans Farm Road area mitigates against this proposal.

00u9g5 The public sewer crossing the site is not affected by this proposal. • Consultations: Anglian Water — no objections in principle but their Land Drainage Consent is required in respect of this development as it is within 4.B7in of the brink of Kingsmans Farm Ditch (Main River).

GRANGE_SERVICE STATION, 247, LONDON ROAD, RAYLEIGH

Add single storey rear extension and infill. Mr. A.W. Rogers, Grange Service Station, 247, London Road, Rayleigh, Essex.

RECOMMENDATION: APPROVAL, SUBJECT TO: 1. Std. Cond. 3 — Commence in five years.

2. Std. Cond. 5 — A scheme of tree and/or shrub planting to be approved.

3. Std. Cond. 9 — Materials to match existing.

4. The area to be used for a shop, sales and office shall be used for purposes connected with, and ancillary to, the use of the land as a petrol filling station, car sales, and vehicle repair and testing facilities only.

REPORT: The appliccant has submitted this application, and the following three on this schedule, for development on both of his petrol and service stations in London Road. The two sites are opposite one another, that on the north side of the road being within the Metropolitan Green Belt, and that on the south side being situated within the area allocated for residential development. Both sites have permitted uses, the northern site comprising a petrol filling station, kiosk, car sales display area for six to eight cars and a chalet in which the applicant resides.

The southern site is larger with an M.O.T. workshop, service bay and shop, with ancillary offices and a large car park at the rear for at least 14 vehicles.

000996 The existing office accommodation and sales offices are very cramped and almost certainly constitutes a danger to occupants in case of a fire. The applications submitted are substantially to • correct these deficiencies. The first application, ROC/549/86, seeks to add a small single storey extension to the rear of the service bay an the southern site and to infill, by a flat roof at ground floor level only, the narrow gap between the M.0.T. and service bay buildings. This would permit the offices and sales area to be larger and inside toilets for the staff to be provided. The occupiers of properties in Little Wheatleys Chase have not objected and will not be affected by the small rear extension. However, the lower ground level of those dwellings makes their existing 6'O" rear boundary fence ineffective and the applicant is quite prepared to plant trees along his western boundary to improve the occupiers' outlook. The second application, ROC/379/S6, seeks to display six cars for a sale on part of the large forecourt abutting Louis Drive West. The County Surveyor has no objections and, again, the applicant has expressed his intention to plant extra shrubs or trees along the boundary to supplement the several mature chestnut trees. No car parking spaces will be lost. The third application, ROC/373/86, concerns the northern site, where permission is sought to extend the existing sales kiosk towards the London Road, again to improve the cramped conditions in the building and to convert the existing toilets to internal rather than external. Planning permission was granted in 1980 under ROC/523/B0 to use part of the forecourt for the display and sale of six to eight cars. The submitted drawing indicates that this area would be used for the parking of at least four customers and staff cars and would replace the two spaces lost by the erection of the kiosk extension. The applicant has verbally confirmed that he is willing to forego his existing approval for car sales/display on this site if permission is granted for the replacement sales area • on the southern site. The County Surveyor raises no objection to this application!. The fourth application, R0C/374/86/AD, seeks consent to relocate the approved circular illuminated logo sign at present on the wall of the southern site workshop to the new flank wall of the proposed extended kiosk on the northern site. The illumination of this sign is very small and the Count9' Surveyor has no objection subject to the usual standards of illumination laid down by the Association of Public Lighting Engineers not being exceeded.

000997 No replies to any of the letters sent to local residents have been received, although it is understood that several occupiers have discussed the proposals with Mr. Rogers, the applicant, who has operated the business for many years and the absence of objections must therefore be construed accordingly.

RECOMMENDAT ION: APPROVAL,_SUBJECT TO: I. Std. Cond. 3 - Commence in five years.

000999 . 2. The parking area hereby approved shall be used only for purposes connected with the permitted use of the site as a doctors surgery and for no other purpose without the prior consent in writing of the local planning authority.

REPORT: Planning permission was granted for the use of this small detached building as a doctors surgery in 1952 when the Molt Farm Estate was constructed. At first the surgery was used in conjunction with the house at 7, Molt Farm Way, but the house has since been sold oft separately to the surgery building. The local planning authority have recognised that the separate building has an approved use as a doctors surgery but have in recent years consistently resisted changes of use to offices, dental laboratory, etc. One of the reasons for refusal which have been made related to unsatisfactory parking within the forecourt, dangerous location for the vehicular crossing, etc. The surgery has now been acquired by a general practitioner who will continue to use it as a branch doctors surgery. Thus the building is being used for its approved use. The formation of a hardstanding for the doctors car and clients vehicles requires planning consent since the building is not within the curtilage of a dwelling house. The vehicular crossing therefore also needs planning consent. If the application is refused, then such vehicles will doubtless be parked on the highway and the level in the road at this point is particularly hazardous. To grant permission would relieve such on-street parking and would also ensure that at least a gap in any parked vehicles five metres in width would exist whereas at present there are no traffic restrictions on nose-to-tail parking.

The occupiers of Nos. 5, 7 and 2, Molt Farm Way were consulted but only one letter has been received from No. 7, Molt Farm Way which acknowledges receipt of the Council's communication only.

This substantially reduced proposal would provide kitchen store and vestry, with no increase in hail accommodation (upon which the relevant parking standard is based). Although provision for on-site parking is below standard and the proposal would result in the loss of one space, an additional access is proposed which would allow better use off the space available for parking.

Add non-illuminated sign. Mr. H. Sherman, do G.B. Spencer Ltd., 2, Market Square Chambers, a Rochford, Essex.

23 001903 RECOMMENDATION: REFUSAL, FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: . The size and scale of the proposed sign in this exposed location would be detrimental to the visual character of the Great Wakering Conservation Area.

REPORT: The proposal involves the erection of a substantial (5.5m xl.5m) signboard to the side elevation of a small antique shop within the Great Wakering Conservation Area. The building is set forward frofa those to the east and the proposed sign would, therefore, be visually intrusive in the street scene. Consultations; County Planner - considers that the proposal would be garish, out of scale and out of character with the area. Rochford Hundred — consider that the application will have no detrimental effect on the environment.

Erect one pair of semi—detached houses with semi—integral garages. Pannell Developments Ltd., do John Cotton, 185, London Road, Southend—on-Sea, Essex. Frontage: lS.25m: Depth: 4Om.

RECOMMENDArION: APPROVAL, SUBJECT TO: Std. Cond. S - Submit materials schedule.

REPORT: Outline planning permission was granted earlier this year for the erection of two semi-detached houses. The main proviso on the proposal was to ensure that a lm separation was obtained between the boundaries and the new property. The property at No. 61 is a small bungalow which is unusual in this section of Clarence Road. There are either substantial semi—detached chalets or semi-detached houses on either side of the bungalow and on the opposite side of the road. . ooloO4 24 The owner of No. 61 has expressed concern about possible overlooking problems from the kitchen window and back door of the new property. The design of these houses is such that it would be very difficult to site the kitchen elsewhere but along the side and the applicant has recognised that a problem may be created by proposing to erect 2m high screen fencing along the boundary. The owner of the property at No. 65 has asked that in addition to 2m high screen fencing along the side elevation of the house, a l.Sm high fence is erected between the rear gardens and a lm high fence along the front boundary to the pavement edge.

It is considered unreasonable to ask for fencing of this type in the rear gardens, but that a lm high fence to the pavements on both sides of the plot could improve the attractiveness of the development. Nei9bour consultations: Number notified — 2; Number of replies — 2. Material planning objections — overlooking and privacy problems.

Notwithstanding Article 3, Schedule 1 of the Town and Country Planning General Development Orders, 1977 to 1981, there shall be no obstruction to visibility within the pedestrian sight splays indicated in blue on the plan returned herewith.

REPORT: Planning consent was refused in June of this year for a similar proposal (ROC/273/86) because of inadequate private amenity space, and the detriment that would be caused to the street scene from utilizing the majority of the front gardenfor parking.

This proposal seeks to overcome those objections by the demolition of an existing conservatory - thus creating 100 square metres of amenity space to comply with this authority's standard of 25 square metres per flat. A wall is also proposed to be erected around the front boundary of the property to screen the parking area from general view. Screen walls are already to be found to the boundaries of adjacent properties. The proposed parking provision would be adequate. S 001006 26 IT pIwuurrrr

001019 • .'ir'• I

REPORT:

A similar application was favourably considered at the Planning Services Committee of 24th July, subject to the imposition of conditions. Members resolved that, further to the recommendation of the Director of Development, no trade or retail sales should be conducted on the site prior to 8.00 a.m. on any day and not at all on Sundays. The applicants by way of this application wish to remove the restriction over Sunday trading imposed by Condition 2. In a letter accompanying the application the applicants Agent states

"My clients are concerned with the wording of condition 2 on the Planning Decision Notice in particular relating to 'no trade or retail sales shall be conducted on the site prior to 8.00 a.m. on any day and not at all on Sundays". This sentence precludes retail trade being carried out on Sundays. My clients find this condition unacceptable for the following reasons. My clients are a well known Essex based firm of Agricultural Sales and Service Engineers providing an essential service for the sales, servicing and repairs of agricultural machinery, and spare part's service, to the agricultural community as and when needed and demanded by their farmer customers, to help provide an efficient and prosperous farming industry which is not only essential to the life of the countryside, it is also a vital national interest. For the majority of the year my clients work a normal five and a half day week providing sales of agricultural machinery and equipment, the supply of spare parts, equipment, tools and other articles required for agricultural, and comprehensive repair and servicing of agricultural machinery and equipment.

The current before-mentioned Detailed Planning Permission ("ROC/456/86)" allows that the Workshop and Service Engineer working on and from the proposed site can operate 7 days a week, but that the retail part of their business may not be conducted at all on Sundays. Your Council will realise that the work on farms at certain times of the year is in operation for 7 days of the week. It is during these busy times that should any breakdowns occur of machinery or equipment then i spare parts must be purchased immediately, for repairs to be' effected by farmers, or if tools or other articles are required by my clients customers they expect to be able to obtain retail service throughout their own working week.

001020 The times during the year when Sunday trading occurs and when the retail element of my clients business must be avaalable 7 days a week, is during the Spring planting period, and the later busy harvest period which takes place through the months of July to November. therefore, the retail element of the trade for 7 day a week working is an essential part of an Agricultural Service Company's business, brought about by the demand of their farmer customers. It is considered that Sunday trading occurs about 16 times per year though not on any specific dates as very often, even in the middle of the harvest period, if adverse weather conditions prevail then the farmers are not working, and the retail demand for spare parts, etc., on Sundays does not occur. The number of customers that use the Sunday service is minimal, but the service must be provided during the before mentioned periods of the year. In view of the above submission, I therefore request that your Council favourably consider the attached Planning Application to vary the wording of condition 2 to read "Trade or retail sales from the premises shall be limited to those of agricultural machinery and directly allied parts and accessories only, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the local planning authority. No trade or retail sales shall be conducted on the site prior to 8.00 a.m. on any day. Retail trading on Sundays shall be limited to a maximum of 16 occasions per year". I trust your Council will give favourable consideration to this application. Your Council, when considering a previous application, No. ROC/l5l/85, by my clients for a building on another industrial estate within your district, "(workshop store, retail showroom, offices and open storage of agricultural equipment and machinery — Rawreth Industrial Estate)", which unfortunately my clients did not proceed with, allowed 7 day per week working in all departments of my clients business, and I trust that your Council will give favourable consideration to the limited Sunday retail use as requested by the attached application.

3. Std. Cond. 12A - Garage to be incidental to enjoyment of dwelling. I 4. Std. Cond. 14 — l.8m (6ft.) high fencing to be erected. 5. Notwithstanding Article 3, Schedule 1 of the Town and Country Planning General Development Orders, 1977 to 1981 (or any Order revoking or re—enacting those Orders), no fence, wall, gate or other means of enclosure shall be erected forward of any wall of any dwelling fronting onto Wallace Close without the prior approval of the local planning authority, except that required to be erected by Condition 4 above.

6. The trees the subject of Tree Preservation Order TPO 27/84, the positions of which are as illustrated on the drawing returned herewith No. FP/4/53/84, together with the trees and hedge outlined in green on drawing 6101/18 returned herewith, shall be protected by chestnut pailing fences for the duration of the construction period (including the initial clearance of the site) at a distance equivalent to not less than the spread from the trunks or as otherwise agreed in writing by the local planning authority. No equipment or materials, including displaced soil, shall be stored or buildings/structures erected inside these fences. In addition, no change in ground level may be made within these fences and none of the trees or the hedge shall be felled, lopped, topped or wilfully destroyed without the previous written consent of the local planning authority. 7. Notwithstanding Article 3, Schedule 1 of the Town and Country Planning General Development Orders,! 1977 to 1981, no windows shall be inserted in the roofspace of any dwelling without the prior approval !in writing of the local planning authority.

REPORT: Detailed consent for three detached houses was granted earlier this year on the other half of the former "Cranley" site fronting onto The Walk (ROC/357/86).

001022 This application is for that half of the site fronting onto • Wallace Close. The application when submitted proposed the erection of three bungalows extremely close to trees protected by a tree preservation order. Following discussions with the applicants a revised proposal has been submitted which would require the removal of two trees (which are in less prominant positions), but which would give much greater separation from the other B protected trees. With the retention of other trees and hedging, it is felt that there would be no unacceptable loss of privacy or character. The density of the development Is low at 8.57 dwellings per acre and will, as a result, be more spacious than much of the existing development in the vicinity, particularly the development in Wallace Close which in the main comprises three storey town houses on very shallow plots.

Consultations:

Anglian Water — no objections. Hullbridge Parish Council - consider the site too small for three properties.

10. Std. Cond. 2713 — Provision within curtilage of site for garage or garage space. 11. td. Cond. 10 — Details of screening.

REPORI': Proposal accords with policy in terms of plot frontages but there are two important considerations:-

1) There is a superb walnut tree within the site but to accommodate more than one dwelling on the land the tree must be removed. There are other trees on the land which can be retained. The recommendation is made on the basis that the land is within a residential area, and would produce an economic development of the available land in a manner which would be in character with existing development.

2. The site is affected by the current drainage restriction and, arising from this, the application proposes utilising cesspoools for two of the proposed dwellings. One dwelling would be a replacement for the existing dwelling on the land and would not be affected by the current drainage restriction. Cesspools in this built-up area location would be likely to give rise to environmental problems and possibly highway congestion by emptying vehicles and, for this reason, the recommendation is that only one dwelling is erected until such time as the sewage work is able to take additional flows. If accepted it is considered that this aspecct of the permission be made the subject of a Legal Agreement.

Consultations:

County Surveyor - no objectioh - directs Conditions 8 and 9.

Use of land for storing coaches.

Mr. Brian John Snow, Cheldon House, Barrow Hall Road, Great Wakering, Essex.

RECOMMENDATION: APPROVAL, SUBJECT TO LEGAL AGREEMENT: 1. This permission shall enure for the sole benefit of the applicant for the use of the land for the storage of motor coaches. The use shall not be operated by any other person or business undertaking without the prior approval of the local planning authority.

2. No mechanical or bodywork repairs to the coaches, including paint spraying, shall be carried out on the site at any time.

3. There shall be no vehicle movements on the site between the hours of 10.00 p.m. and 7.00 a.m.

4. Any surface water drainage from the areas liable to oil pollution shall incorporate oil interception arrangements capable of removing oil from the surface water.

001031 REPORT:

This item was deferred from the last Planning Services Meeting of 24th July, 1986 for further consideration of the highway safety aspects of the proposal, particularly with regard to the movement and manoeuvring of coaches onto and from the site. Discussions have taken place with the appliccant who has submitted written confirmation that "He never reverses his coaches out of the yard only into it" to enable clear vision of road traffic in both directions and exit from the site in forward gear. The site width and depth is too restricted to enable turning facilities to be provided within the site. The applicant emphasises that there! have been no complaints over the years about his vehicles or their use in the yard and that the Highway Authority has no objection to the use.

"As far as another site is concerned, I find this most unaceptable as I own the premises and any change of yard would be of great inconvenience. My work is mainly for the Essex County Council taking children to school from Wakering and any alternative yard outside the Wakering area would involve extra mileage and cost and would have to be negotiated with the Essex County Council". If the present use should close one must consider alternative uses bearing in mindan established use certificate was granted on 17th January, 1977 for use of the land among other things as coal yard and associated haulage facilities and access thereto (EU/6/76 refers). If Members agree to approve the continuation of this use the applicant has indicated that he would be prepared to enter into a Legal Agreement under Section 52 of the Town and Country Planning Act, 1971 to reinforce the suggested conditions.

4. A 2.lm x 2.lm pedestrian visibility splay, relative to back of footway/highway, shall be provided on both sides of all vehicular accesses and there shall be no obstruction to visibility above the height of 600mm within the areas of such splays.

5. Where the surface finishes of private drives are intended to remain in unbound materials, the first 6m, as measured from the a back of highway, shall be treated with a surface dressing V approved by the local planning authority. 6. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 3 and Class 1, Schedule 1 of the Town and Country Planning General Development Order, 1977, the dwellings hereby approved shall not be enlarged or altered without the prior approval in writing of the local planning authority. REPORT: Consideration of application ROC/O62/82/4 was deferred at the meeting of the Committee on the 3rd July to allow for further negotiations with the Architect concerning the location of the detached unit and the possibility of providing comprehensive proposals for the total residential development.

q01933 The development of the area is based on the outline permission ROC/062/82 which provides for new housing linked with the preparation, planting and provision of an area of public open space to the east of the site. The site's primary access is an extension of the present Grested Court. The new road is known as t4illview Nleadows and it is supported by a series of short lateral culs—de—sac. Permission for the road pattern was granted — ROC/062/82/l. Since the consideration of the deferred appliccation, the Architect has submitted an application (ROC/062/82/5) for a further five units and has also shown, in sketch form, the expected layout for an additional area on the eastern side of the site together with outline plan generally describing the first phase of the frontage development on the western side of Millview Meadows. the details available now in regard to the eastern side of the site combine to show how the character of the area is proposed to evolve front East Street southwards to include the two culs—de-sac The Garners and The Trunnions. The concept pursued by the Architect aims to provide a mix of accommodation allied to varied and acceptable designs. Two, three and four bedroomed units are shown to relate satisfactorily to each other, to the older persons unit, Lucam Lodge, and to Grested Court which is to be used for municipal housing. The layout achieves, consistent with providing sufficient and convenient arrangements for access, motor vehicles and garden spaces, a reflection of the character of the core of the historic town. The inappropriate visual characteristics of a suburban housing estate are avoided by the varied siting and designs of buildings allowing for the enclosure of spaces to establish a visual interest without loss of privacy or unacceptable overlooking. The location of the site so close to the centre of Rochford and adjoining, as it does, the designated conservation area suggests that the design approach to development of the area should not be based on a philosophy of accepting a number of basic designs and arranging them into an estate layout. To attain the design suggested does mean the closure of spaces by the positioning of some buildings close to back of footpath and from the layout submitted this arrangement is shown at locations where otherwise there would be relatively open vistas not appropriate to the concept. The designs of the buildings are varied and include, on plot No. 9, ROC/062/82/5, a two bedroomed two storey octagonal house and a three bedroom house composed of one and two storey elements on the south side of the junction of The Trunnions. The Town ad Country Planning General Development Order provides that houses where erected may be extended, subject to certain constraints, without the need for planning permission. In the interests of appearance and impact on neighbours it would be preferable to restrict those rights to extend to requiring planning permission in regard to the 2 bedroomed houses on plots

001034 Nos. 1 to 13 inclusive and an appropriate condition is recommended.

No retail sales shall take place from the premises.

REPORT:

Relevant Planning History A temporary planning permission was granted on 29th February, 1972 (ROC/676/71 refers) for the use of part of the existing barn (about 74m2/SoOsq.ft.) for the storage and drying (by natural evaporation) of white weed which expired on 31st December, 1972. The reason given for the temporary permission by the local planning authority at that time was "to enable the local planning authority to assess the effects the use may have on local residential amenaties". Notwithstanding the time limit the use continued without any complaints from local residents and the use was further regularised for a temporary period of three years on 22nd December, 1976 (ROC/855/76 refers) which expired on 31st December, 1979.

Present Application The applicant is seeking once more to regularise an existing low key use and states that the buildings have not been used for agricultural purposes since 1968 when serious illness caused him to finish as a market gardener. Since then his land has been worked by a contractor who harvests and transports the crops to his own storage units so the outbuildings are surplus to requirements. Phe business is run by one man who provides employment for local fishermen who collect the weed on a seasonal basis (six months per year on average in the winter) and is dyed with vegetable dyes for use in pet fish tanks and exported all over the world.

001036 If Members agree to grant permission it is suggested this be made subject to a Legal Agreement under Section 52 of the Town and aW Country Planning Act, 1971 to reinforce the conditions.

1. std. Cond. 3 - Commence in five years. 2. std. Cond 9 - Materials to match existing. 3. Std. Cond. 29 - Dwelling not to enlarged or altered without prior approval.

4. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 3 and Class 1 of the Town and Country Planning General Development Order, 1977 (or any Order revoking or re-enacting that Order) no further buildings or structures shall be erected within the curtilage of the site without the prior consent in writing of the local planning authority.

REPORT': The planning history of this bungalow situated within the Metropolitan Green Belt shows that various planning consents were issued, up to 1976, well before the local planning authority's developlment control policy in the Green Belt was adopted. In 1967, the bungalow was extended at the rear by 24sq.m. and in 1969 a large carport was permitted, being some 42sq.m. in area and extending down the side of the dwelling. In 1973 planning permission was granted for a front extension to the building. This permission was never implemented and had it not expired in 1978 and the extension subsequently built, a further 37 sq.m. of floor space would have been created. In 1976 planning permission was granted for a detached double garage some l.2m from the dwelling and this garage was built which, as far as the occupiers were concerned, made the carport redundant. The 1969 permission for the carport did not contain the conditions that are currently imposed and therefore there were no restrictions on its use. Consequently, the rear part was filled in with brickwork and used as a utility room. No increase in the overall height was made. The present occupiers need elderly parents to live with them and the parents' doctor has written confirming their frailness, that one of the elderly parents is deaf and the other has suffered a heart attack. It is proposed to close in the remainder of the carport to provide some 18 sq.xn. of extra floor space for the parents and planning consent is required only because the carport roof, of p.v.c. sheeting, needs to be slightly higher, and of solid construction to comply with Building Regulations.

001040 A further 18 sq.m. of living floorspace would then be created, a making a total of additional floorspace of 66sq.m. However, W against this must be balanced the 37 sq.m. of front extension which was previously permitted but not implemented. In addition, the overall size of the building would remain the same apart from a few inches attributable to the increased thickness of the flat roof over the carport. The overall appearance of the building would change only by the slight increase in carport height and the erection of walls at the front and side. Whilst it could be disputably argued that the Council's 35sq.m. rule may not be complied with in this case, on balance, Members may consider that exceptional circumstances exist to justify the granting of permission subject to conditions and a Legal Agreement to remove permitted development rights to erect further buildings within the curtilage.
