The Planning Officer then reminded Members of the details of the application. He began at the front of the property and outlined the proposed alterations. The Site Inspection Group then proceeded to the rear of the property where the proposed extension was explained and the agent had marked out the relevant positions. He advised Members that some excavation would be necessary. The local Ward Member indicated a bamboo that represented the ridge height of the proposed extension. The Planning Officer outlined the position of the eaves of the proposed extension. The agent then erected a ridge marker for the Site Inspection Group as a point of reference as the Group proceeded to the neighbouring property that would be most affected by the proposal. From the rear garden of the neighbouring property the position of the ridge height could be judged. The local Ward Member advised Members that one of the primary concerns was the loss of light, particularly evening light, to the neighbouring property. The Group proceeded to a public area to discuss the proposal. Members had asked a number of questions in relation to height and position of the rear extension. The Parish Council representative advised the Group that the Parish Council concerns related to unneighbourliness. Whilst they were pleased that the ridge height had been reduced from the original proposal there was still concern at the position of the extension as it could be placed at the other side of the bungalow and the harm caused would be limited. The local Ward Member had nothing further to add, other than to thank the Members for their attendance.
