Officer report

What officers recommended

Officers recommended approval because the development would preserve the conservation area, respect neighbours and satisfactorily address highways, parking and flood risk.

“Justification for Approving the Application:”

“1) The proposed development consisting of extensions and alterations to the host property are designed to be subordinate and preserve the original architectural appearance of the host building and the wider Oxford Gate development. The proposals would have limited visibility in the local environment and as such would preserve the character and appearance of the Brook Green conservation area.”
