PLANNING COMMITTEE AGENDA - Hartlepool Borough Council

Planning Committee – 25 th February 2009 4.1
Hsg12: States that proposals for residential institutions will be approved subject to
considerations of amenity, accessibility to public transport, shopping and other
community facilities and appropriate provision of parking and amenity space.
PU9: States that community-based uses will be permitted in residential areas subject
to amenity, accessibility, car parking and servicing considerations.
Planning Considerations
16.9 The main planning considerations in this instance are the appropriateness of the
proposal in terms of the policies and proposals contained within the adopted
Hartlepool Local Plan outlined above and in particular the impact of the proposals
upon neighbouring properties, in terms of outlook, dominance, appearance,
overshadowing and privacy, the appearance of the development in the streetscene
in general. Highway safety issues also need to be considered.
16.10 The application is being assessed by the Council’s Adult and Community
Services Team, and it is anticipated that a response will be received prior to the
Planning Committee. Further, discussions are continuing about the scheme. It is
therefore anticipated that a detailed recommendation will follow in an update report.
