Date <strong>of</strong> receipt: 14/2/03 Date(s) <strong>of</strong> Amendment(s): 14/3/03<br />

(1) SUMMARY<br />

This application by Housing Services seeks to improve security at the existing<br />

Langworth Drive sheltered housing complex through improvements to the<br />

boundary fencing. This has been in response to incidents <strong>of</strong> criminal activity and<br />

anti-social behaviour at the complex, in addition to preventing the use <strong>of</strong><br />

Langworth Drive as an informal pedestrian thoroughfare. It is also anticipated that<br />

the proposed access gate will prevent parking problems caused by persons using<br />

Langworth Drive as free parking for adjacent Uxbridge Road businesses.<br />

The proposed works include the erection <strong>of</strong> a powder coated, galvanised fence<br />

with electrically operated gates along the front boundary, in addition to increasing<br />

existing fence heights along strategic portions <strong>of</strong> the remaining boundaries by the<br />

addition <strong>of</strong> railings, timber trellis or plastic coated chain mesh to existing<br />

closeboard and brick fences.<br />

It is considered that the proposed development works are acceptable. The<br />

design, siting and height <strong>of</strong> the proposed fencing is not considered to significantly<br />

affect the amenity <strong>of</strong> neighbouring occupiers or the street scene in general.<br />

Planning permission is recommended.<br />

(2) RECOMMENDATION: APPROVAL - subject to the following conditions:-<br />

1. (T1) Time limit 1. (T1) Standard<br />

2. (TL1) Existing Trees - Survey (TL1) Standard<br />

(TL2) Trees to be Retained 3. (TL2) Standard<br />
