PROPOSAL OUTLINE - 9 DWELLINGS FOLLOWING DEMOLITION OF EXISTING DWELLING - As amended by plans received (07/05/2014)

LOCATION: Glenmore, 27 Lymington Bottom, Four Marks, Alton, GU34 5AA

REFERENCE : 55451 PARISH: Four Marks

APPLICANT: Ms Minter

CONSULTATION EXPIRY : 29 May 2014

APPLICATION EXPIRY : 03 June 2014

COUNCILLORS: Cllr M C Johnson MBE, Cllr I Thomas

SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: OUTLINE PERMISSION

The application is included on the agenda at the request of the local Ward Councillor due to the impacts the proposal may have on the character and appearance of the area, highway issues and impacts on adjoining residential property. Site and Development The site is located on Lymington Bottom and is situated adjacent to the Village Hall, within the settlement policy boundary of Four Marks. It comprises a mid-twentieth century bungalow and garage with extensive grounds including a historic chalk pit. The ground rises fairly steeply from Lymington Bottom and a number of trees remain on the site. Residential development surrounds the site, which is a mix of two storey houses to the north and single storey to the south, east and west. The surrounding area is similarly mixed in architectural styles but with a prevailing pattern of low-rise, single storey buildings. Buildings are generally low density, detached and set in spacious gardens. A number of mature trees and ornamental trees in the area creates an attractive blend of buildings and natural planting which results in a semi-rural character, although nearby estate architecture and housing currently under development have a more sub-urban appearance. The development would result in the demolition of the dwelling and the erection of 9 new dwellings (the scheme initially proposed ten). Three of the dwellings would be accessed from, and front, Lymington Bottom with a new access road, adjacent to the village hall providing access to the remaining six dwellings. The application is in outline with access, layout and scale to be considered at this stage. The units are detached and indicative drawings of the scale of the buildings suggests one and a half storey buildings.

H3 - Residential Development within Settlement Policy Boundaries

Planning Policy Constraints and Guidance National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) The NPPF was published in March 2012 and came into force with immediate effect. At the heart of it is a presumption in favour of sustainable development. It states that the development plan is the starting point for consideration of planning applications, and planning applications must be determined in accordance with it, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. Village Design Statement - Four Marks Village Design Statement - non statutory planning guidance that has been the subject of public consultation and therefore is a material planning consideration. Consultations and Town/Parish Council comments Arboricultural Officer - I now note that the Highway is not to be adopted. I therefore raise no objection providing the work is carried out in strict accordance with the submitted Arboricultural Method Statement (with amendments), Tree Protection Plan and drawing number TLR00-P500-00. Environmental Health, Contamination - The site lies on and adjacent to potentially contaminated land with the following description: Pit/Quarry c.1872 to c.1936 and Unknown Filled Land c.1981 to present.

No objections to planning permission being granted. However, with regard to the above information, with no desktop study provided by the applicant to assess the extent of potential contamination on site and as a development sensitive to contamination, in accordance with the NPPF, the following standard planning conditions are recommended: - Phased site investigation, including a desktop study - Validation of remedial works - Unsuspected contamination found on site Environmental Health, Pollution - After initial concern being raised regarding the proximity of noise sensitive development to the village hall, and in response to the applicant's acoustic report, the following updated comments have been received: The conclusions of the report produced by 24 Acoustics are agreed and there are no concerns about the potential impact of noise from the village hall having a detrimental impact on the proposed new dwellings. County Highways Officer - A number of concerns relating to visibility splays, swept path analysis details and the proposed shared access road results in an objection of the following grounds: - Inadequate visibility splays are proposed at the junction of the access with the highway and this would cause danger and inconvenience to users of the adjoining highway. - The proposal incorporates inadequate provision for the parking and manoeuvring of vehicles clear of the highway which would result in vehicles interfering with the free flow of traffic on the adjoining highway to the detriment of highway safety and cause inconvenience to other highway users. - The site cannot accommodate adequate facilities to enable vehicles to turn within it and so enter and leave the highway in forward gear which is considered essential in the interests of highway safety. - From the information available it cannot be shown that the development can be accommodated in a manner that would not cause increased danger and inconvenience to highway users. In response to these concerns the applicant prepared an Addendum to the transport Statement and together with additional plans led to the following further comments from the Highways Officer: There are a number of issues with tracking of vehicles where they are shown to mount areas of landscaping. Further consideration should be given to the location of bin and cycle stores. The triple depth parking shown to plot 6 is discouraged. Four Marks Parish Council - Whilst acknowledging the changes that have been made, the PC still OBJECT to this application as it stands, as the proposed changes do not address the serious concerns raised over the initial application: - Height. Whilst the heights have been reduced in most cases, the dwellings are not the type required in the village, bungalows, which is even more imperative in this instance due to the height and position of the proposed development;

Page 5: CP21 - Biodiversity CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution ... Part 1 It… · CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution CP29 - Design CP31 - Transport East Hampshire District Local Plan: Second

- Density. Changing the two 3 bedroomed houses to one 5 bedroomed house, does not address the need in the village by reducing the development by one bedroom or change the density issues when other plots, particularly Plot 8, appear to have increased floor space. - Privacy. The three new bungalows recently constructed in Blackberry Lane, which were conditioned to be bungalows in the planning decision, will be completely overlooked due to the height and location of Plots 5,6 & 7, the same condition should apply in this instance, and - Plot 8 has not been re oriented, just re positioned by moving the garage, the window height is the same and all the previous concerns with this plot still remain. In summary, all our previous objections, as they have not been addressed, still stand: - The location map is misleading, and does not show the surrounding properties accurately; - The two additional detached houses at the front of the development are out of keeping with the surrounding properties and are too close together; - Increased traffic movement and an additional access onto an already busy road; - Proposed removal of the hedge row is contrary to the Village Design Statement. Representations The 53 letters of objection identify the following areas of concern which remain unaltered through the submission of revised plans: a) The proposal over-develops the site; b) The proposal would result in unacceptable loss of privacy to adjoining properties; c) Scale of development would be out-of-keeping with the character of the area; d) The access lane is on a hill which would create dangers on Lymington Bottom; e) There is insufficient parking and as the village hall and church are very busy, there

would likely be parking on the highway; f) There is no provision for open space and children's play areas; g) The cumulative effect of development in Four Marks is not sustainable; h) Development would result in increased noise and general disturbance to existing

properties; i) A lack of tree planting is shown; j) Mature trees were felled prior to the submission of the application which changed the

nature of site; k) Additional traffic generation would add to congestion with resultant highway safety

concerns; l) Adequate manoeuvring within the site has not been demonstrated; m) The proposal would increase drainage problems in the area; n) The design of dwellings is out of keeping with the appearance of the are; and o) Inaccuracy and misleading nature of the submitted plans. Determining Issues 1. Principle of the development 2. Impact on the character and appearance of the area 3. Impact on the amenity of adjoining property 4. Highway issues

Page 6: CP21 - Biodiversity CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution ... Part 1 It… · CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution CP29 - Design CP31 - Transport East Hampshire District Local Plan: Second

5. Arboricultural issues 6. Environmental health implications 7. Drainage 8. Developer contributions Planning Considerations 1. Principle of the development The site falls within the settlement boundary of Four Marks and therefore residential development is considered sustainable in line with the National Planning Policy Framework and Joint Core Strategy policies CP1, CP2 and CP10. The site is only partially previously developed (a single storey dwelling), the rest comprises undeveloped land associated with the dwelling. The proposal is considered to accord with the spatial strategy of the Joint Core Strategy by reason of the location of the site within the settlement. The principle is, therefore, accepted, but consideration is given to a number of site specific issues. For clarity, the site is within the settlement policy boundary and development would be regarded as a 'windfall' and the amount of development in such instances does not count towards the housing target for the settlement. The application was submitted under Local Plan: Second Review policies which would not have resulted in a requirement for on-site affordable housing provision. Nonetheless, the applicant undertook a viability report which concluded that the scheme would not be viable with affordable housing. Officers have though negotiated a contribution towards off-site affordable housing provision to be secured through a legal agreement. 2. Impact on character and appearance of the area The site comprises a mid-twentieth century bungalow fronting Lymington Bottom with extensive grounds to the rear. There is also a former quarry on the site but this does not form part of the developed area (it would become part of the residential curtilage of plot 1). The character of the area has been set out in the first section of this report. The proposal would result in a cul-de-sac form of development with three dwellings accessed directly from Lymington Bottom. The scale of the development, its form and density is tolerably in keeping with the form of surrounding development. The application is made in outline, but indicative drawings of the dwellings (following revisions) suggest chalet style or one-and-a-half storey dwellings. In terms of its relationship with surrounding development, the layout and scale are considered appropriate. The proposal would result in a density of 19.5 dwellings per hectare which, whilst a little higher than the surrounding area is not demonstrably harmful and makes efficient use of a sustainably located site. The layout would enable existing and additional trees to establish, which is consistent with the area, and the basic form and scale of the proposed dwellings is similar to the variety in the area. In this regard, the proposal is considered to accord with JCS CP29 which states development should 'contribute to local distinctiveness and sense of place, and is appropriate and sympathetic to its setting in terms of its scale, height, massing and density.'

Page 7: CP21 - Biodiversity CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution ... Part 1 It… · CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution CP29 - Design CP31 - Transport East Hampshire District Local Plan: Second

3. Impact on the amenity of adjoining property Whilst the scale and layout of the proposal are considered acceptable in terms of the impact on the character and appearance of the area, a number of strong objections have been received in respect of the potential loss of privacy arising from the proposal. Initial, indicative plans of the dwellings implied a number of instances where properties would have windows giving a direct view to rear gardens of properties on Blackberry Lane. It should be remembered that this is an outline application with access, layout and scale being considered at this stage. The applicant has provided a number of elevation drawings of the dwellings but these remain indicative and the precise position of windows and the architectural form are for consideration at a reserved matters stage. However, with an outline application, the applicant must be able to demonstrate the development can be successfully accommodated without obvious harm to residential amenity. Nonetheless, the elevational drawings show the scale of development and the likely implications for impact on neighbouring properties. These drawings have been amended to address some of the concerns raised locally. In addition to reducing the number of dwellings from ten to nine, plot eight has been moved away from the shared boundary with properties on Blackberry Lane (9m from the originally proposed 3m) and this plot would retain and add to the planting on its boundary with a property on Lymington Bottom. Residents of Blackberry Lane retain concerns that the revised plans have not gone far enough to remove the potential for overlooking of private rear gardens. Officers, however, consider that the potential impact would not be overriding and the proposal is not at odds with policy CP27. It states that 'development will not be permitted if it would have an unacceptable effect on the amenity of the occupiers of neighbouring properties through loss of privacy or through excessive overshadowing.' The site is north of properties on Blackberry Lane and, together with the scale of the buildings and their location on lower ground, the issue of contention in loss of privacy rather than overshadowing. Having regard to the position, orientation, and likely position of windows, the impact on neighbouring properties would not be over-riding. There is some tree planting on the shared boundaries which helps obscure views towards neighbouring properties and additional planting would be secured at reserved matters stage. There would invariably be some degree of overlooking, but such views would be from secondary windows, ie. first floor bedrooms, but no more so than is common place in built areas. The proposal would not introduce a dominant and direct overlooking that would significantly harm private residential amenity.

4. Highway issues An access road would be formed to six of the dwellings whilst the remaining three would be accessed from two entrances directly from Lymington Bottom. The Highways Officer had previously raised a number of concerns with the proposal including the access road to Lymington Bottom and some points relating to the internal layout. An amended drawing has resolved the concern with the access to Lymington Bottom which now shows the necessary 2.4m by 43m visibility splays. The applicant has also resolved a concern relating to the tracking of a refuse vehicle within the site There would be satisfactory parking within the site, although the Highway Officer retains some concern with an instance where triple depth parking is shown to one of the plots.

Page 8: CP21 - Biodiversity CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution ... Part 1 It… · CP25 - Flood Risk CP27 - Pollution CP29 - Design CP31 - Transport East Hampshire District Local Plan: Second

The Highway Officer also retains some reservations with some instances where tracking drawings appear to show access to some of the plots to be tight and where vehicles overhang areas of landscaping. These points are noted but they are not considered to be of substantial or overriding concern. The road would remain private and is not to be adopted by the County Highway. The detailed points of concern identified could also be resolved in a subsequent reserved matters application. The location of the site, within walking distance of a range of facilities in Four Marks and to public transport links on the A31 has the potential to reduce the number of private vehicle movements, which is sought by the transport policy of the Joint Core Strategy, CP31 and paragraph 34 of the NPPF. 5. Arboricultural issues Initial concern was raised regarding the potential impact on trees, particularly trees that were made subject of a tree preservation order around the former quarry area. The applicant has confirmed that the roads would not be adopted and consequently, there is potential for use of 'no-dig' construction methods in the root protection areas of these trees. Subject to the development being carried out in accordance with submitted details as secured by condition, the proposal is considered acceptable. 6. Environmental Health There was initially concern that noise from the Village Hall could result in harm to the amenity of residents. The applicant therefore commissioned an acoustic report which Environmental Health have assessed and conclude that noise from the Hall would not result in harm to the amenity of residents. With respect to contamination, part of the site lies on a historic quarry but it is not anticipated that there is a likelihood of contamination to be present on site and therefore conditions in respect of unsuspected contamination be attached to any approval. 7. Drainage The lower part of the site lies within an area at risk of surface flooding and consequently further information regarding the drainage proposals was sought. Due to the sloping topography of the site and the increased hard surfaces resulting from the development, there would be an increase in surface water run-off which has the potential to increase localised flood risk. Site percolation tests have been carried out showing infiltration rates into the underlying chalk which shows the ground conditions are suitable for the proposed sustainable drainage system. The Drainage Consultant confirms that subject to the use of permeable surfaces and standard conditions, the proposal is acceptable. The management/maintenance of the private system of drainage would be subject to a legal agreement. Foul drainage would connect to the existing mains system in Lymington Bottom.

8. Developer contributions The application proposes a net increase of 8 dwellings, which, in accordance with the Joint Core Strategy and the Council's Guide to Developer Contributions, generates a requirement for financial contributions to be made towards off-site provision of public open space, community facilities and integrated transport measures. The applicant has agreed to make these necessary contributions through a legal agreement. As referred to above, a commuted sum towards affordable housing has also been agreed in lieu of on-site provision. The recommendation is subject to completion of the agreement by the 30 January 2015. Response to Parish/Town Council Comments The Parish Council remain concerned over a number of issues; density, scale, impact on amenity, loss of hedgerow and increased traffic. Comments made in respect of the loss of hedgerow are acknowledged, but it is considered that the loss of a section of the beach hedge would not result in overriding harm to the area. The loss would not be unduly detrimental to the semi-rural character of Lymington Bottom and hedgerows that form boundaries to private dwellings would likely be retained. Comments in respect of additional traffic are also noted. Whilst various highway issues have been identified, as outlined above, the amount of traffic generated by the development would not be an overriding concern. Conclusion The redevelopment of the property and the extended site, which lies within the settlement policy boundary of Four Marks, complies, in principle, with the provisions of the Joint Core Strategy. The development would integrate acceptably without causing any significant environmental effects to the character and appearance of the area or on the amenity of adjoining residents. The layout and scale of development is commensurate with the area and there would not be overriding harm arising from the access or traffic generated by the development and the site is considered to be sustainably located in relation to local facilities and services. RECOMMENDATION That: a) the Solicitor to the Council be authorised to draw up a Section 106 Agreement and; b) provided that by 31st January 2015 the applicant, and other parties as relevant, enters into the Section 106 agreement with the Council to secure: i) developer contributions towards integrated transport measures; off-site public open space; community facilities and S106 monitoring and administration; ii) an off-site contribution towards affordable housing of £43,776; iii) Management/maintenance plan for private drainage systems and road layout and other communal areas Then the Service Manager Planning Development be authorised to OUTLINE PERMISSION subject to the conditions set out below.
