Agenda item

25/00259/CU– Application for change of use from residential dwelling (Use Class C3) to short stay/holiday let accommodation (Sui Generis) (Retrospective application).

(In making its decision, the Committee took into consideration the Planning Officer’s report (previously circulated) and the views in relation to Environmental Health and Highway Development Control. Ten letters of objection were taken into consideration, alongside the views of the Applicant, three objectors and the Ward Councillor whom the Committee heard).

RESOLVED – That planning permission be refused contrary to recommendation, for the following reason:

1.      In the opinion of the Local Planning Authority the development would have an adverse impact upon residential amenity in terms of noise, nuisance and disturbance from activities that are not usual in a residential area, contrary to Policy DC4 of the Darlington Local Plan (2016 – 2036).
