Officers’ recommendation
Officers recommended approval because the amendment affected only the road layout, did not change the buildings, and created no new planning issues.
“The application site is located within the settlement limits of Kesh. The existing planning permission is planning reference LA10/2022/0583/F. The proposed change relates solely to modifications within the roads layout previously approved and the accompanying determination under the Private Streets Order.”
“No conflict arises with planning policy as the change is only related to the road layout. There is no conflict or inconsistency created by the revised layout with any conditions attached to the original planning permission. DfI Roads has no objection to the updated layout and all originally imposed conditions, particularly those relating to access, visibility and road safety remain applicable and achievable without modification.”
