KCC Additional Planning Meeting 13th January 2025
Application Reference: 24/1687/HH Proposal: Extension to an existing dropped kerb Site Address: 15 The Village, Kerry, Newtown, SY16 4NR
Council resolved to “OBJECT” based on the following material considerations:
1.The property is in the Kerry Conservation area and the applicant does not have permission to remove the wall to the front of the property. This matter was raised and discussed at the Kerry CC meeting 29 Nov. 2022 – “9. Planning Enforcement Notice – Cllr V.Wildish received a call on 31st October at 10am from a local resident in connection with a contravention of planning with the Kerry conservation area. Cllrs are aware of the contravention and the resident/s concerned will be rectifying the issue therefore the request to complete an enforcement form for submission to Powys CC has been deferred until January 23 to allow time for the planning issue to be resolved." Therefore, if the wall was reinstated there would be no requirement for a dropped kerb at the property.
2.Highways Safety – the property is adjacent to the village school and KCC supports the findings of Highways, Transport and Recycling in their consideration that the application is contrary to LDP Policies DM13 (10) & T1, Manual for Streets 1 & 2 and Parking Standards Wales 2014.
3.The application proposes an extension to an existing dropped kerb at the premises however KCC notes that there is not an existing dropped kerb at the property. There is a dropped kerb at the adjacent walkway between the property and the school for pedestrian access. The Council believes that the application should be for the creation of a dropped kerb at the property.
