PLANNING APPLICATIONS CONSIDERED UNDER DELEGATED POWERS
WEEK ENDING 1 JANUARY 2021
Owing to the Christmas Break and leading up until the next scheduled meeting of the
Planning, Regeneration and Environment Committee on 19 January 2021, the following
13 planning applications received since the last committee meeting held on 8 December
2020 will be considered under Delegated Powers and taken by the Chair of the
Committee in conjunction with the Planning Clerk, the Vice Chair of the Committee and
the Committees and Ryde Place Plan Co-ordinator.
1.
PLANNING APPLICATIONS
i.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s), Ryde East
Location: 112 Great Preston Road, Ryde, PO33 1DD
Proposal: Proposed single storey rear extension with balcony over to include
privacy screens
COMMENTS
Neighbour at 114 Great Preston Road (to the left of property looking on to
112) has raised a comment stating that they would not object to the
application should suitable screening be in place to allow for privacy.
We would therefore propose that RTC recommends approval subject to
two screens being fitted on each side of balcony.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objections to the application subject
to two screens being fitted on each side of balcony in order to provide
adequate privacy to neighbouring homes.
ii.
Parish(es): Nettlestone and Seaview Ward(s): Nettlestone And Seaview
Location: Land North of Woodland Close and Adjacent Cedar Lodge and
Thornton Cottage, Puckpool Hill, Seaview.
Proposal: Outline for up to 50 residential dwellings (with details of access),
creation of a new access off Puckpool Hill, and provision of public open space,
landscaping and associated works (additional information available to view
online
- ecology report and revised road widening and access plan)
(readvertised application)
COMMENTS
This is a readvertised application with revised road widening and access
(as outlined in their response to Island Roads initial concerns). Although
not technically in a Ryde Ward, RTC did discuss the application at its
meeting on 17 November 2020 owing to its close proximity and its impact
on Ryde and objected to the original application on several grounds.
We note that the comments by the developer on addressing road widening
does not appear to alleviate the original concerns raised by RTC around
poor pedestrian access and prejudicing against non-vehicle owners .
There is also still no indication on addressing affordable housing
provision which was a major objection raised by RTC and Nettlestone and
Seaview PC.
We also note that since RTC commented originally, there have been 73
objections (as of 18 December 2020) from members of the public as well
as concerns raised by Natural England, the Isle of Wight Bat Group,
Michael Burroughs Associates Limited Planning Consultants
(who
submitted a very comprehensive report with strong objections regarding
eight designated heritage assets) and the Nettlestone Village Residents
Association
We would therefore propose that all of the reasons RTC submitted on 24
November 2020 should remain in place and that we add nothing more to
those.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council makes no additional objections to the ones
submitted on the 24 November 2020.
iii.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde East
Location: 22 Upper Highland Road, Ryde, PO33 1EA
Proposal: Variation of condition 4 on P/01394/12 to allow annexe to be used for
holiday or long term letting
COMMENTS
Application seeks to amend condition 4 of original planning decision. We
would surmise that the original reason for the annex was for the provision
of a home for a relation of the applicant to reside and that this purpose is
no longer required. We would also request that appropriate payment to
Solent Protection Area (SPA) is agreed.
We see no reason for RTC to object to this and there are no concerns from
the public or statutory consultees. We would therefore recommend
approval subject to the appropriate SPA Payments being agreed.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection, subject to the appropriate
SPA Payments being agreed.
iv.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde North West
Location: 2B George Street, Ryde, PO33 2EB
Proposal: Proposed conversion of maisonette to form two flats
COMMENTS
Island Roads have approved the application and stated that the metered
‘on road’ parking provision in George Street is suitable for this site and
there is also access to both flats for bicycles. The application also
addresses housing requirements as set out in the Island Plan.
What isn’t clear is if there is suitable waste bin storage for each dwelling.
There should also be assurance that the appropriate SPA payments are
agreed.
We would therefore recommend conditional approval, subject to
confirmation of suitable waste bin storage being provided for each flat and
that the appropriate SPA payments are agreed.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection, subject to confirmation of
suitable waste bin storage being provided for each flat and that the
appropriate SPA payments are agreed.
v.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde North West
Location: 16 Cross Street, Ryde, PO33 2AD
Proposal: Proposed change of use of ground floor office (Class E, financial and
professional services) to form a self- contained flat
COMMENTS
We would recommend that this application is considered by all members
of the Planning, Regeneration and Environment Committee at an urgent
meeting to be convened w/c 11 January 2021.
vi.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde North West
Location: 16 Cross Street, Ryde, PO33 2AD
Proposal: Listed Building Consent for alterations in connection with proposed
change of use of ground floor office (Class E, financial and professional
services) to form a self-contained flat
COMMENTS
We would recommend that this application is considered by all members
of the Planning, Regeneration and Environment Committee at an urgent
meeting to be convened w/c 11 January 2021.
vii.
Parish(es): Ryde, Ward(s): Ryde South
Location: 87 And 87A High Street, Ryde, PO33 2SZ
Proposal: Proposed change of use and alterations to form 5 flats
COMMENTS
This is the former plumbers shop which is to be converted into flats.
Provision of waste bin storage is confirmed in the application as well as
provision for eight bicycle parking spaces. RTC does request that SPA
payments are agreed.
We would therefore propose that RTC raises no objection, subject to SPA
payments being agreed, as it addresses housing needs and is on a ‘Brown
Field’ site.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection, subject to the appropriate
SPA Payments being agreed.
viii.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde North West
Location: 17 Spencer Road, Ryde, PO33 3AA
Proposal: Proposed single storey front extension; alterations; loft conversion to
include 2 dormer windows and recessed balcony
COMMENTS
This application is supported by a Heritage Statement which states that
as the building is within the conservation area, the application will adhere
to Policy PPS6 (will be sympathetic to the surrounding area). There also
appears to be no intrusion on neighbouring properties. There has been no
objections from the public.
We would therefore recommend that RTC raises no objection
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection to the application.
ix.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde East
Location: Land Adjacent Barnsley Cottage, Brading Road, Ryde, PO33
Proposal: Proposed Agricultural Barn
COMMENTS
This application is to provide storage facilities for the farm. Island Roads
have given conditional approval (see pages 4 and 5 of their report).
We would therefore suggest that RTC recommends approval subject to
the conditions raised by Island Roads being observed.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection to the application, subject
to the conditions raised by Island Roads being adhered to.
x.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde North East
Location: Ryde Pier Head Railway Station, Ryde Pier, Ryde, PO33 2HF
Proposal: Listed Building Consent for installation of lightweight platform overlay
of No.1 Road platform only for level access boarding to class
484 and
installation of a barrier/handrail at the back edge of overlay
COMMENTS
This application is necessary for the introduction of the new IOW Class
484 trains which replace the old 1938 former London Underground stock.
We see no issues and would recommend that RTC recommends approval.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection to the application.
xi.
Parish(es): Ryde, Ward(s): Ryde North East
Location: Ryde Esplanade Railway Station, Esplanade, Ryde, PO33 2HE
Proposal: Listed Building Consent for installation of lightweight platform overlay
of No.1 platform only for level access boarding and associated works
COMMENTS
This application is necessary for the introduction of the new IOW Class
484 trains which replace the old 1938 former London Underground stock.
We see no issues and would recommend that RTC recommends approval.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection to the application.
xii.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde North West
Location: Ryde School With Upper Chine, 7 Queens Road, Ryde, PO33 3BE
Proposal: Proposed refurbishment and extension of theatre building, including
lighting on the front elevation and new external ramped access/paths and
balustrading
COMMENTS
We see no issues with this application. It looks to enhance the school with
an aim of providing improved performing arts facilities.
The Design and Access statement suggests no significant impact on the
surrounding Grade ii buildings. We would therefore recommend that RTC
raises no objections.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection to the application.
xiii.
Parish(es): Ryde Ward(s): Ryde North West
Location: 16 Northwood Drive, Ryde, PO33 3AQ
Proposal: Alterations and conversion of garage to habitable room; proposed
conservatory to rear
COMMENTS
This seems a straightforward conversion of a garage at the front of the
property to a new habitable room for the residents of the house. No
objections from neighbours or statutory consultees have been raised.
We would therefore recommend that RTC raises no objections.
RESOLVED:
THAT Ryde Town Council raises no objection to the application.
2. LICENCING APPLICATION
None received.
