The Principle Planning Officer provided an update on Planning Appeals and highlighted that:

 

·       An appeal had been allowed at Ickleford Primary School for the installation of a bike shed, with the Inspector concluding that there was a neutral impact on the Conservation Area.

·       An appeal had been dismissed for a retrospective application for a box dormer extension at a property in Graveley, with the Inspector concluding that there was sufficient harm to the character and appearance of the area.

 

In response to a question from Councillor Tom Tyson, the Principle Planning Officer advised that it would be for the Enforcement team to consider the next steps relating to the box dormer extension, but action could potentially require restoration to the original condition.
