8. Schedule of Planning Decisions (Appendix 4) Chairperson To receive and comment as necessary on the planning decisions and recommendations of the planning authority listed at the attached schedule.

9. Town And Country Planning Act 1990 Application No: 16/03437/FUL - To replace the existing unapproved fenestration with fenestration to match those approved by WBC’s Conservation Officer, but using a different material for The Flat, The Nags Head, 91 Bartholomew Street, Newbury. Newbury Town Council’s Comments: Objection/comment: We support the continued insistence by the Conservation Officer that traditional materials should be used for the windows of this building in the Conservation Area, in accordance with the previous appeal decision. Chairperson To note that the above-mentioned Appeal is to be decided on the basis of an exchange of written statements by the Appellant and West Berkshire Council. A copy of the document will be available at the meeting. Should the Council wish to make any comments at this stage, or withdraw, modify or add to any earlier comments the Council might have made, or request a copy of the decision letter, the Council should write to the Planning Inspectorate by Wednesday 28 February 2018. To consider next steps

10. Town And Country Planning Act 1990

Application No: 17/02461/PACOU - Application to determine if prior approval is required for the Change of Use of office (class B1) to 24 residential dwellings. For Leat House, Overbridge Square, Hambridge Lane, Newbury for Over Bridge Development Ltd Newbury Town Council’s Comments: Objection/comment. The Town Council remains fundamentally opposed to the conversion of office accommodation to residential in Overbridge Square, as on other trading estates. Meaningful planning is not possible if the zoning policy laid down in an approved Local Plan can be overridden by permitted developments rights. The balance in Newbury between business and residential activities which is central to the town’s character will be fatally undermined if commercial premises can be converted on a large scale to residential as this application intends. There are also significant practical problems. The noise and traffic from businesses will interfere with the enjoyment by the flat residents of their premises, and lead to pressure for curtailment of those business activities. Overbridge Square is not suitably located for schools, shops, and other residential amenities. PDR’s should not be a means of circumventing what would otherwise be a planning refusal. Chairperson

To note that the above-mentioned Appeal is to be decided on the basis of an exchange of written statements by the Appellant and West Berkshire Council. A copy of the document will be available at the meeting. Should the Council wish to make any comments at this stage, or withdraw, modify or add to any earlier comments the Council might have made, or request a copy of the decision letter, the Council should write to the Planning Inspectorate by Wednesday 28 February 2018. To consider next steps

11. Town And Country Planning Act 1990 Application No: 17/01808/OUTD – Outline application for erection of dwelling with integral garage. Matters to be considered: Access for Garden Land at 5 Normay Rise, Newbury. Newbury Town Council’s Comments: No objection Chairperson To note that the above-mentioned Appeal is to be decided on the basis of an exchange of written statements by the Appellant and West Berkshire Council. A copy of the document will be available at the meeting. Should the Council wish to make any comments at this stage, or withdraw, modify or add to any earlier comments the Council might have made, or request a copy of the decision letter, the Council should write to the Planning Inspectorate by Friday 2 March 2018. To consider next steps

12. Town And Country Planning Act 1990 Application No: 16/03562/OUTD – Renewal of application no 01/00254. Demolition of existing dwelling house, redevelopment with residential care home – matters to be considered access, layout & scale for Upcot, Tydehams, Newbury. Newbury Town Council’s Comments: Objection/comment: 1) Tydehams possesses a unique character which should be preserved. Upcot was one of the first houses to be built, as part of a group of 12 constructed between 1923 and 1928. 2) Upcot also contributes towards the unique character of Andover Road as a key gateway to the town, as outlined in policy ADPP2 of the Core Strategy. In both respects, this application would contravene the Newbury Town Design Statement. 3) We agree with the objection by the Highways Officer, that the exit of additional vehicles onto Andover Road would be unsafe. 4) The area is zoned for residential use, not for a commercial development as this application proposes. 5) The scale and density of the buildings on the site would be an overdevelopment. 6) We question whether a residential care home on the site would be large enough to be economically viable. Chairperson To note that the above-mentioned Appeal is to be decided on the basis of an exchange of written statements by the Appellant and West Berkshire Council. A copy of the document will be available at the meeting. Should the Council wish to make any comments at this stage, or withdraw, modify or add to any earlier comments the Council might have made, or request a copy of the
