PROPOSAL:  conversion of dwelling into three flats (1 x 3 bed and 1 x 1 bed and 1 x studio); single storey side extension; bin and cycle stores.

The Committee received representation from Councillors Chetna Halai and Nitesh Hirani, who both urged the Committee to refuse the application.

Councillor Marilyn Ashton proposed that the application be deferred to allow for public participation.  The motion was seconded, put to the vote, and agreed.

The Interim Chief Planning Officer advised that letters to objectors had, inadvertently, not been sent by Planning Services.  Consequently, members of the public had not been able to participate as objectors.  Therefore, to allow for public participation, the application could be deferred.

DECISION:  DEFER

The Committee wished it to be recorded that the decision to defer the application was unanimous.
