Speakers

Parish Council: Councillor Carolyn Cummings (Maids Moreton Parish Council)

Objector: Mr Patrick Hardcastle

Agent: Mr Anthony Thompson

Applicant: Ms Sally Hickford

Councillor/Local Member: Councillor Warren Whyte

 

RESOLVED :-

 

That the application be refused for the following reason:

 

By virtue of the increase in the size, bulk and spacing of the new dwellings and the resultant requirement for increased parking the proposed layout leads to a cramped form of development which is out of keeping with the character of the area and the settlement patterns of The Pightle.  Furthermore the change in layout leads to limited opportunity for a satisfactory level of landscaping particularly to the front of the dwellings and also the contrived parking layout will result in tight and awkward turning manoeuvres which will lead to potential conflict and inconvenience to users of the site.   As such the proposal is contrary  to policy GP35 Materials and Design Details and GP38 Planting and Soft Landscaping of the Aylesbury Vale District Local Plan 2004 and also contrary to the emerging policy BE2 Design of new development of the Vale of Aylesbury Local Plan 2013 – 2033.
