So you are saying it’s very unlikely to get permission? My question is: why is the planning officer supporting the application if it’s unsafe and there's not enough space to turn the car?

I think it will be very doubtful that you will get permission. Put in an application and see. That is the only way you will find out.

The application is already in place. If they reject us, we will appeal to the planning inspectorate.My question is if we gets rejected by the inspectorate are we able to submit a new application in future ?

Thanks for the info. I didn’t know that we could apply again. Another question, are we allowed to resubmit without going for appeal after the decision?

I suggest you let other matters and conspiracy lie for a day or so, and look at @Big Jimbo 's points carefully.

 

Are they correct? Can you address them?

dropped curbs

Can we drop US word  "curb" and use the British word " kerb" please?

 

Kerbs are there to curb wheels going onto the pavement.

You do not have an application in for a dropped kerb. That needs to be your next step. If you don't do this your current application is likely to get refused. As the council has deferred your application, speak to the planning officer and ask her to hold your current application untill you put in a application for a dropped kerb and get an answer of that.

First step. fill in an application for a dropped kerb........Ask the planning officer to hold your current application untill you get an answer on your new application.

You may need to employ a specialist to help you with the application for a dropped kerb.

Thanks for the advice. I will ask the planning officer. Dropped kerb applications also need planning permission, or is it issued by a different department? I have read somewhere that dropped kerbs also need planning permission.

[Big Jimbo]

Dropped kerbs are dealt with by the HIghways dept. Not the planning Dept.

Internet. West sussex county council.......Search function. Dropped Kerb.......... All the information you need will follow.

Hi everyone,

Today was the second committee meeting. I didn’t personally attend the meeting, but I watched the whole thing on YouTube.

So the scenario is that we have backed up all the concerns raised during the previous meeting regarding visibility splay and the likelyhood for VCO. The highway authority visited the site, and they are happy with the visibility. They also recommend obtaining a VCO licence, which means it’s very likely to get thr VCO licence.The planning department is also favouring the application.

During the meeting today, even after submitting all the supporting evidence, nearly 18 members objected to the application, with 1 member in favour and 4 abstain. The reason for the objection was that the proposed development could result in the loss of on-street vehicle capacity due to the development of the amenities of the local residents.

 

 

can some one please give me your suggestions please.

does these objections  means this application will be rejected?

Thank you so much

My understanding is that the planning committee's decision is final as far as the local authority goes. You do have the right to appeal to central government. From what we have seen they are less interested in minor details and more interested in the politics of getting more houses built under their watch.

If your planning committee is the same as ours they have little knowledge of all the laws and a lot of interest in petty politics.

[Achu]

This was the second committee meeting. In the first one, they raised issues about visibility splays. When we have the backing for that, they brought up this new issue: proposed parking would affect neighbouring amenities.

I feel sorry for the head of planning, as these members don’t understand anything. It was very clear that the members just wanted to favour the 18 households.
