Submitted report by the Chief Executive on a Notice of Review by the applicant in respect of a planning application refused by officers under delegated powers for the siting of a static caravan for residential use at land at Perceton Gate, Part Middelton Farm, Irvine.

The Notice of Review documentation, the Planning Officer's Report of Handling, a location plan and a copy of the Decision Notice, were provided as appendices to the report.

The Planning Adviser to the Local Review Body introduced the matter under review, confirming that the Notice of Review had been submitted timeously by the applicant.

Page 1 5 The Local Review Body agreed that it had sufficient information before it to determine the matter without further procedure. The Planning Adviser thereafter summarised the Notice of Review for the Applicant, the Report of Handling of the Appointed Officer and the representations lodged. Photographs and plans of the proposed development were displayed.

Having considered all of the information, the Local Review Body agreed to uphold the decision to refuse planning permission on the grounds that:-

(1) that the proposal would not accord with Policy ENV2 of the Adopted Local Development Plan (LDP) in that the applicant has failed to demonstrate a genuine operational need for a worker to live on site in pursuance of an established rural business; and

(2) That the proposal would be contrary to criteria (a) and (b) of the General Policy. The caravan is a temporary structure, which would be visually prominent and the siting would have an adverse impact on the character, appearance and amenity of the local area. and (b) that the Decision Notice be drafted by Officers, agreed by the Chair and, thereafter, signed by the Proper Officer for issue to the applicant.

The meeting ended at 2.50 p.m.

Appeal History Of Site: None

Description

Planning permission is sought to change the use of a vacant Class 2 office to a Class 3 cafe with associated takeaway. The proposal includes the installation of an external flue, which would be mounted on the rear roof slope at the southernmost part of the building. Internally, the premises would be fitted wth a counter where food would be prepared and served; a takeaway waiting area; a seating area and an accessible toilet for customers. A staff toilet and store within an existing lean-to extension at the rear would also be provided.

There are no external changes proposed to the building, which is finished in cream painted wet dash render with black roller shutters over the front windows and door. The roof of the building is slated. There is a bus stop on the road in front of the premises with block paved parking bays on either side of the street.

The application site is within Irvine town centre and conservation area, and is situated at the north end of a row of traditional commercial units on the west side of 55 Eglinton Street. The row is mostly single storey, although one of the units has dormer windows in the roof. The row contains one cafe, four shops and the vacant application site. To the north and south of the row are residential uses, and on the opposite side of the street are various offices, an opticians and the Irvine Burns Club.

As noted above, the site is within Irvine Town Centre in terms of the adopted Local Development Plan (LDP). Policies TC 1, HE 1 and the General Policy applies to the consideration of the application.

A supporting statement indicates that the proposal is for a small pizza cafe offering a takeaway facility. Hours of operation have not been indicated.

Consultations and Representations

The application was subject to the statutory neighbour notification procedures. In addition, a notice was published in a local newspaper.

One letter of representation has been received, which expresses the following views:

1. Object on the basis of over-provision and the detrimental effect of the proposal on an adajcent catering business.

Response: It is not considered that the application would result in over-provision at this location. The premises are situated at the northern end of the town centre and there is presently one cafe in a row of 6 commercial units. The other units are occupied by retailers, with the application site being a vacant office at the north end of the row. There is a shop between the proposed cafe/takeaway and the existing cafe. On the opposite side of the street, there are no catering businesses nearby. In addition, competition between similar businesses in a town centre is not a material planning consideration.

Consultations

Environmental Health - require further details of the proposed ventilation system and recommend a condition that will address potential issues such as noise, smoke or odours.

Response: A condition to meet the above requirements could be attached to any grant of planning permission.

Analysis

The application requires to be assessed in terms of Policy TC 1, Policy HE 1 and the General Policy of the adopted LDP.

Policy TC 1 is supportive of Class 3 and takeaway uses within Irvine town centre, provided that uses likely to give rise to noise and disturbance, such as hot food takeaways are not located "so as to give rise to a concentration of such uses in close proximity." It is considered that the takeaway would be secondary to the principal use of the premises as a cafe, which would contribute positively to the vitality of the area by helping to extend pedestrian footfall from High Street out into Eglinton Street. As such, it is not considered that the proposal would result in any 16/00544/PP 56 significant adverse effects on amenity within a town centre location. A further positive benefit would be the re-use of vacant offices. The proposal therefore accords with Policy TC 1.

Policy HE 1 states that proposals which would adversely affect the visual amenity or character of conservation areas shall not accord with the LDP. The application proposes the erection of a flue to the rear. It is noted that there is an flue on the rear roof slope of the existing cafe within the row of shops. However, this flue is not visually significant within the street. It is not considered that the proposed flue would be visually intrusive nor would it adversely affect the character or amenity of the building due to its siting on the rear roof slope. The proposal therefore accords with Policy HE 1.

The relevant criteria of the General Policy are (a) Siting, Design and External Appearance, (b) Amenity and (d) Access, parking, etc.

In terms of (a), no changes to the exterior of the building have been proposed other than in respect of signage, which falls outwith the scope of the planning application. The proposal is considered to be acceptable in terms of criterion (a).

In terms of (b), it is considered that the amenity impacts associated with a Class 3/takeaway use in this town centre location would be acceptable. It is not considered that there is an over-concentration of catering uses in the area of a type likely to give rise to nuisance. There are no flats above the premises and, given that there are residential properties nearby, a condition could be imposed to require full details of the ventilation system prior to its installation. In addition, a condition regulating the hours of operation is also considered necessary in order to safeguard the amenity of the nearby residential area. Whilst the proposed use is suitable for a town centre location, it is considered that more weight should be afforded to the potential impacts on residential amenity given the location of the application site near the edge of town centre. Subject to conditions, the proposal is considered to be acceptable in terms of criterion (b).

In terms of (d), the site is well located to serve a large walk-in catchment from the surrounding residential areas. In addition, the site is on the main bus route through Irvine and there are public car parks within a short walking distance. The proposal is considered to be acceptable in terms of criterion (d).

There are no other material considerations. Accordingly, planning permission should be granted, subject to conditions in respect of ventilation details and hours of operation.
