Officer report
Why officers supported it
Officers considered the proposal acceptable as a small gap-site dwelling, with limited views and no unreasonable effects on neighbours, heritage or nature.
“The policy does however allow for the infilling of a small gap site in a substantial and continuously built-up frontage in specific circumstances, as an exception within the Policy. In this case it is clear the proposal will add to an existing ribbon of development as it sits within a line of existing development running along the northeast side of the Stiloga Road.”
“…site due its location within a substantial line of development, the low lying topography of the site and area, and the vegetation bounding the site and in the wider vicinity which helps to screen, enclose and provide it with a backdrop. I believe a dwelling including garage of an appropriate siting, size, scale and design should integrate into this gap site with minimal disruption to the rural character of the area.”
Officer report
Advice from consultees
Roads officers had no concerns subject to revised plans and visibility splays, while environmental health gave advice about noise, odour, construction and sewage.
“…direct access onto the Stiloga Road. DFI roads have been consulted and advising if planning content no 3rd party lands required they have no concerns regarding road safety or traffic flow resulting from this proposal subject to revised site location plan 01 Rev.03; standard conditions for the provision of 2.4m x 70m sight splays in both directions onto the public road and informatives.”
“If the proposed dwelling is to be occupied by persons associated with the farm buildings Environmental Health have no objections in principle to the proposal. However, should the occupancy be for those not directly associated with farm buildings approval should not be granted until sufficient evidence is provided that demonstrates that noise or odours associated with the farm buildings will not have a detrimental impact on the occupants of the proposed dwelling.”
Officer report
Committee decision
The committee approved the application subject to the conditions set out for the development.
“Resolved That planning application LA09/2025/1295/O be approved subject to conditions as per the officer’s report.”
