4.            Determination of Application

 

Sam Cadman representing the Council’s Planning Services Team advised that that a change of use planning application had been submitted earlier in the year but had subsequently been withdrawn. A further planning application had been submitted in November 2015 which had yet to be determined and may well if granted be conditioned to restrict the hours of operation.

 

The Sub-Committee was advised that two new dwellings had been built to the rear of the application address.

 

Members were also advised that the applicant was currently trading without planning permission having been granted but that no enforcement action had been taken as the Service would support the change of use that had been applied for.
