Appeal Dismissal
|
| RR/2007/978/C Sedlescombe C E Primary School, Brede Lane |
Variation of condition 3 imposed upon permission RR/2495/CC to permit use of multi-use games area for 7 days/week (including public holidays) - winter months 0800-1700 and summer months (ie during BST) 0800-2000 |
The Parish Council supports the proposal which would allow, amongst other events, Saturday use by our thriving Junior Football Team for training purposes when the sportsfield is too wet. There might also be the opportunity for other youths to use it when staff are on the school premises. The Parish Council does, however, support the Environmental Health officer's suggestion that, initially, a one-year temporary permission is granted so that the affect on the neighbouring properties can be monitored. The School has kept the neighbours informed of this application.

| RR/2007/895/P Hurst House, Hurst Lane, Sedlescombe |

| RR/2007/873/P Ambleside, Balcombe Green, Sedlescombe |
Erection of extensions including roof lights and alterations |

ROTHER DISTRICT COUNCIL GRANTED PLANNING PERMISSION |
| RR/2007/821/P Holmside, Whydown Hill, Sedlescombe |
Erection of three-storey side extension to form lounge and porch on ground floor, bedroom and bathroom at first floor and extensions of existing bedroom within the roof space |
Parish Council supports approval but, because the neighbouring property is so close, suggests that consideration should be given to ways of alleviating disturbance during the building work such as restriction on working hours and making arrangements for contractors' parking. Although the application states that no trees will be removed, it will be necessary to remove some conifers.
ROTHER DISTRICT COUNCIL GRANTED APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS |
| RR/2007/791/P Gate Cottage, Church Hill, Sedlescombe |
Extension of existing pitched roof over garage to side and majority of kitchen/dining room at the rear to provide two additional bedrooms and bathroom facilities |

ROTHER DISTRICT COUNCIL GRANTED APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS |
| RR/2007/686/P Coombe Wood, Sandrock Hill, Sedlescombe |
Demolition of existing garage and carport and erection of detached pitch roof double garage |
Parish Council supports refusal as the proposed development would be large and obtrusive close to its boundary, out of proportion to the house, and its proposed use for working on vehicles would unreasonably harm the amenities of neighbouring properties. The access onto the B2244 is unsuitable for any intensification of use.
ROTHER DISTRICT COUNCIL GRANTED APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS |

ROTHER GRANTED PLANNING PERMISSION WITH CONDITIONS |
| RR/2007/525/P 1 Old Schoolmasters House, Great Sanders House, Hurst Lane, Sedlescombe |
Erection of barn for storage of military vehicles |
Parish Council supports refusal as the proposed development would harm the amenities of neighbouring properties and would not be compatible with the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The development would be more appropriately-situated on an industrial site.

| RR/2007/261/P Old Barn, Hawhurst Road, Sedlescombe |
Change of use and conversion of detached former garage building into a single unit of self catering holiday let accommodation |
The Parish Council objects to the proposal as it is likely to affect the amenities of nearby properties. No specific need for this type of accommodation has been established. Access from the B2244 for horse boxes is not ideal.
There are no footpaths in the immediate vicinity and no bridleways which could be used for horse-riding.
ROTHER DISTRICT COUNCIL REFUSED PLANNING PERMISSION (increased traffic hazards because of inadequate visibility, loss of domestic garage, extension of residential curtilage) |
| RR/2007/182/P Petley Farm, Marley Lane, Sedlescombe |
Outline: siting of two new holiday lodges and formation of car park and removal of steel containers |
Parish Council feels that the buildings are too close to the industrial buildings but has no comment on the planning regulations.
ROTHER DISTRICT COUNCIL REFUSED PLANNING PERMISSION (increased traffic hazards at existing access, too close to established business units)
