II MINUTE OF MEETING OF LOCAL REVIEW BODY OF 19TH APRIL, 2016

The minute of the above meeting was submitted and noted.

III LOCAL PLANNING REVIEW - LRB4/16 - 58 DALRYMPLE TERRACE, DUNDEE

There was submitted Agenda Note AN43-2016, giving details of a request for a review of the refusal of planning permission for the erection of a dormer on the south and north elevation.

The Planning Adviser gave a brief outline of the application and the reasons for the refusal.

Papers had been circulated and the Local Review Body had requested an accompanied site visit which had taken place on 25th April, 2016.

The Local Review Body noted all of the above, and agreed in terms of the Local Review Procedure Regulations to determine the review without further procedure on the basis of the information before it.

Thereafter, having considered all the information, the Local Review Body, having taken into account the provisions of the Development Plan, all material considerations, the accompanied site visit and all matters raised at the review, upheld the Appointed Officer's decision to refuse planning permission reference 15-00811-FULL for the following reasons:-

The proposed development is of a poor quality design which will adversely affect the existing property and surrounding area and therefore fails to comply with Policies 7 and 10 and the Householder Development - Advice and Best Practice Supplementary Guidance of the Dundee Local Development Plan 2014. There are no material considerations which would justify laying aside the provisions of the development plan.

Christina ROBERTS, Chairperson.
