Planning Update 04/02/2021

Since the last newsletter, the key planning applications are:-

New Units Marshall Parade Coldharbour Road – Removal/variation of condition 9 to allow a change in planning use to allow for possible occupation by a dentist.

Lock Lane – A new bungalow on a field was refused.

Boat House, Pyrford Place – Demolition of existing boathouse & erection of a two-storey boathouse. A previous application was refused.

Qaro Pyrford Heath – Prior Approval to add an additional storey above the existing bungalow. This was recommended for approval at the January 2021 Planning Committee, but a decision was made to defer the application for further review.

Planning Note:

“Prior Approval” is a new type of planning regulation that is a permitted development right. There are conditions that need to be met, but in principle, for detached houses, up to two additional storeys can be erected on the topmost storey of the house, or one additional storey on a detached house of one storey. Under the regulations only adjacent neighbours are normally entitled to comment.
