Reason: To accord with the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 Background Papers: Application form and plans received 18th October 2007 Letter from Alex G Ross & lsobel Ross, Flat 112 Dawson's Building, 61 Main Street, Kilsyth, G65 OAH received 23rd October 2007. Kilsyth Local Plan 1999 Any person wishing to inspect these documents should contact Ms Erin Louise Deeley at 01236 616464. Date: 4th December 2007 I * Representation APPLICATION NO. N/07/01690/FUL REPORT 1. Description of Site and Proposal 1.I The site is a Somerfield supermarket store, located in Main Street, Kilsyth. The site is within the Kilsyth Conservation Area. It is bounded by Dawson’s Wynd to the north, Main Street to the east and a car park to the west and south. 1.2 The proposal is for the installation of an ATM machine on the front elevation of the store which faces on to Main Street. The main public entrance to the store is on this elevation. The ATM machine is proposed to be installed in an existing window. 2. Development Plan 2.1 This proposal raises no strategic issues in terms of the Glasgow and the Clyde Valley Joint Structure Plan 2000 and can therefore be assessed against local plan policies. 2.2 In the Kilsyth Local Plan 1999, the application site lies within a defined core shopping area and the Kilsyth Conservation Area where policies SC3 and BE5 apply. 3. Consultations and Representations 3.1 There were no consultations regarding this application 3.2 One letter of representation has been received from a resident of Main Street regarding this application. The objections raised, and my comments thereon, can be summarised as follows :- 0 The ATM machine could represent a disproportionate inroad to the business viability of the Post Office located in Main Street. Comment: The competition the proposed ATM will pose to the existing service at the local Post Office is not a material planning consideration and should therefore not influence the determination of this application. 0 This proposal could be regarded as an extension to the monopolistic trend of small supermarkets which in a small community results in the disastrous loss of small businesses. Comment: This objection is not relevant to the application for an ATM machine and should not influence the planning decision. 0 The granting of this application would be tantamount to going against the aims and objectives of the Town Centre Initiatives to encourage and foster the retention and restoration of small retail and commercial businesses in the immediate area. Comment: The Planning Authority, through the Kilsyth Local Plan 1999 and the Town Centre Initiative, aims to support and encourage the retention of existing small businesses and services in Kilsyth town centre. I do not consider, that the installation of an ATM on the front elevation of Somerfield to be contrary to this aim, nor do I consider that it would detrimentally affect the retail viability of the centre. 4. Plannina Assessment and Conclusions 4.1 In terms of Section 25 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997, planning applications must be determined in accordance with the relevant development plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. In this case, the proposal is not contrary to policies SC3 and BE5 of the Kilsyth Local Plan 1999. 4.2 ATM machines are common features at supermarkets such a Somerfield, and in town centres such as Kilsyth, and provide a convenient service for the public. 4.3 I do not consider that the ATM machine would have a negative impact on the character of the building. A minimal amount of space would be utilised in mounting the ATM on the front elevation of the store. 4.4 Notwithstanding the letter of representation received, it has been concluded that the proposed ATM is not contrary to the aims and objectives of the Kilsyth Town Centre Initiative. The potential impact an ATM could have on other existing small businesses is not a material planning consideration and is not relevant to the consideration of this planning application. Accordingly, it is recommended that planning permission be granted.
