Plans

Permissions:

Applications:

• 11/0872/PA - Cromwell House, Church Road Burton - no objections (Cllr Mathias left the room for the duration of the discussion in relation to this application).
• 11/0859/PA - The Dolphins, Barn Lake, Burton Ferry - councillors were concerned that the plans show a detached garage not a car port as indicated on the application therefore feel the application should be rejected as being fundamentally wrong.
• 11/0659/PA - Land S/E Kiln Park, Burton Ferry - Councillors object to this application on the basis that the sewerage system is already under pressure and would be unable to cope with any more properties. BCC supports the letters submitted to PCC by Mr Scott and Mr J Thomas. BCC also refers to planning appn 00/0305/PA and the conditions laid out in relation to sewerage and roads in particular Reserved Matters attached (conditions 9 & 10) regarding Welsh Water and their stipulation of 6 properties maximum. BCC also feels that the applicant should be made to provide details of materials to be used in the road widening and that they should be to a minimum of Highway Standards.
