The application states that the dwelling is to be finished in brickwork and tiles to be agreed.”

“The application site is located at the side of the existing dwelling (No. Moorside, Moor Lane) and forms part of the residential curtilage of this dwelling. The site is located at a higher land level than No. 2 and has a large detached garage and off street parking.”

“1222/0009 - Erection of detached bungalow with rooms in the roof - Refused – On green belt grounds.”

“Policy BE1: Housing Provision supports small scale housing developments in Little Eaton where appropriately located and designed, outside of the Green Belt. The proposal is for a dwelling outside of the village settlement boundary and within the Green Belt therefore it fails to comply with BE1 of the Little Eaton Neighbourhood Plan. Notwithstanding this the reasons for such a departure from this policy are given above.”

“The proposal is considered to constitute limited infilling and is not therefore inappropriate development. It is of an acceptable design which will not adversely impact upon the amenity of neighbouring properties, the character of the street scene, or highway safety. The application is recommended for approval.”

“Little Eaton Parish Council – Objection the proposal is outside the village settlement and therefore contrary to national and local policies. The previous refusals on the site have not been addressed in this submission.”

“Derbyshire County Council Highways – No objection – no conditions requested.”

“Adjoining occupiers were notified of the proposals and a site notice was displayed. A press notice advertising the proposals was placed in the local paper, however no representations have been received.”

“The committee considered a report from the Head of Planning and Regeneration which sought Planning permission for the erection of a detached two-storey dwelling.”

“RESOLVED that the application be approved subject to the conditions contained in the report.”
