22/0122 – 30 Kinder Avenue, NH – Erection of a single storey rear and side extensions and front porch

It was RESOLVED that the Committee has no objections to the extension, but as it is unclear on the plans where the fencing goes, they are concerned that it might go round onto Kinder Avenue and if this is the case, that they would object to the height of the fence.

It was RESOLVED that the Committee objects to this application because of concerns raised by the Tree Officer regarding the removal of a hedgerow, being replaced by a fence, the lack of trees being included in the plan and the issues that can be caused by building on the land to wildlife and natural drainage.  They were also concerned about insufficient parking space, the narrow access and the safety of the residents should there be a fire.

22/0150 – 45 Matlock Drive, NH – Demolition of existing garage and conservatory and erection of two storey side and single storey rear extensions

22/0361 – 38 Baildon Crescent, NH – Erection of first floor side extension and detached garage with wall and railings to front of property.
