Update from the Development Manager

 

Minutes:

Members noted the planning appeal statistics report that set out six appeal decision notices, of which five had been dismissed and one allowed.

 

The Development Manager drew Members’ attention to the appeal allowed for application 20/1895/FUL for the construction of garage and barn at Green Acres, Lyme Road, Axminster.  The Inspector determined that although the proposed development was relatively large it would not have a detrimental impact on the surrounding area nor a detrimental effect on highway safety.
