4. PLANNING APPLICATIONS
i. Application Ref No: 143913
Proposal: Planning application for conversion of 3 bed house to 2no. flats/bedsits
Location: 60 Etherington Street, Gainsborough
RESOLVED to object to the proposed conversion in the application on the following grounds:
Etherington Street is a residential area with predominantly two and three bedroom terraced family homes with small gardens. Converting the existing property into two separate bedsits would, in the committee’s opinion, not be in keeping with the local area.
Car parking in the area is already a problem. splitting the property potentially increases the number of resident car owners and therefore the number of car parking spaces required. The plans do not propose the provision of off-street parking.
There is very limited on street parking. The proposed development would thus potentially increase the highway congestion in the area.
