The Planning Committee considered the proposal within the Peel Conservation Area, where special attention must be paid to preserving or enhancing character and appearance per Section 12(4) of the 1991…
Policy CA12 in Planning Policy Statement 1/01
Policy CA12 requires that when considering proposals in a conservation area, the impact upon the special character of the area will be a material consideration. The officer assessed the tiles' bright multi-colours as detracting from the building and harming the Peel Conservation Area, failing to preserve or enhance its character. Legislation under Section 12(4) of the 1991 Act mandates special attention to this desirability.
Support the proposal. Although multi-coloured, the tiles are colour co-ordinated with the colour wash on the property; the scheme enhances the appearance of the building.
No views on the application, having no adverse traffic impacts.
