PROPOSAL:  single storey side and rear extension to outbuilding (Retrospective)(Part Demolition of Outbuilding)(as amended by the Addendum).

 

Simon Joshua (objector) addressed the Committee and urged them to refuse the application.  The agent and applicant were requested to make representation.  However, they chose not to do so.

The motion was seconded by Councillor Stevenson and agreed.
