A FURTHER MOTION PROPOSED BY COUNCILLOR JONES AND SECONDED BY COUNCILLOR L HARRIS “THAT THE APPLICATION BE REFUSED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASON” WAS CARRIED
Overdevelopment of the site
The proposal would represent an overdevelopment of the site and thereby appear out of keeping with the area by reason of the height of the building, the crowded frontage of the property on refuse collection days, the use of garden land for development, where the priority for development is previously developed land and the stepped access to the basement flat. The proposal would thereby prove contrary to the provisions of policy CS13 of the Southampton Local Development Framework Core Strategy Development Plan Document (January 2010), saved policies SDP1, SDP7 and SDP9 of the City of Southampton Local Plan Review (March 2006) and as supported by the Residential Design Guide Supplementary Planning Document (September 2006) with specific reference to part 3 and part 9.
RECORDED VOTE: FOR: Councillor Osmond AGAINST: Councillors Jones, Claisse, Cunio, L Harris, Thomas ABSTAINED: Councillor Mrs Blatchford
