APPENDIX 2

 NEW PLANNING APPLICATIONS RECEIVED

 

16/02149/ADV                    Unit C, Tabard Square, Bells Hill, Stoke Poges, Bucks

3 x Internally illuminated fascia signs and 1 x internally illuminated hanging sign.

Parish Comments:- No Objection.

 

16/02121/FUL                    Unit C, Tabard Square, Bells Hill, Stoke Poges, Bucks

Change of use from retail shop (A1) to mixed class coffee shop (A1/A3) with external seating.

Parish Comments:-  No Objection.

 

16/02130/FUL                    Harborgill, Park Road, Stoke Poges, Bucks, SL2 4PA            

Portico incorporating first floor balustrade and rear balconies.

Parish Comments:-  We would like to comment that policy EP3 both (a) & (d) apply to this application.

                               

16/02067/FUL                    29 Decies Way, stoke Poges, Bucks, SL2 4EF

Detached chalet bungalow.

Parish Comments:-  We are concerned about the access for vehicles from the point of view that Decies Way is already overstretched with parked cars.  We also have concerns around the publics access from other neighbouring houses who currently use the rear access for wheelie bins to and from the rear of their properties. We highly recommend that SBDC do a site visit.

If the conifer/cypress hedge remains it would cause no problems to any neighbours, but removing it would be a loss of an amenity.

 

16/02155/FUL                    South Lodge, Rickmans Lane, Stoke Poges, Bucks, SL2 4AF

Two storey rear extension.

Parish Comments:-  We believe that this was originally a tiny 2 bedroomed bungalow and has already been extensively extended, and therefore would now be over the 50% GB rules.

 

16/02182/RC                       1A Clevehurst Close, Stoke Poges, Bucks, SL2 4EP

Removal of condition 9 of PP 05/00096/FUL to allow for permitted development rights to be reinstated.

Parish Comments:-  Removal of condition 9 could act as a precursor and we would question why permitted development rights would now be removed after not being given in the first place?

 

16/02172/FUL                    Macs Farm, Farthing Green Lane, Stoke Poges, SL2 4JQ

Retrospective application for agricultural barn.

Parish Comments:-  Object, inadequate information on the drawings especially as the notes on the drawings relate to existing and proposed plans, this does not make sense.  This is a Green Belt site which has already been in conflict with enforcement.

 

16/02240/FUL                    2 Penn Meadow, Stoke Poges, Bucks, SL2 4EB

Part single/part two storey front/side/rear extension.

Parish Comments:- No Comment.
