Ms Youngson addressed the Committee in opposition to the recommendation for approval.  There were no questions.

 

Mr Dean addressed the Committee in opposition to the recommendation for approval.  Responding to a question from Committee on what would alleviate the main concerns regarding the proposed dwelling, whilst being aware that the application met the relevant planning policies: Mr Dean reiterated the concerns relating to the increase in height from 2.5m maximum going up to 6.5m at the apex of the roof, this being a huge change to what was currently there; that the aspect and lighting of 1 Crown Street would be destroyed; and that for the property at 9 South Street it would not be as aesthetically pleasing with the gable end being right on the border of the property; currently unable to see the garages.
