BE19 BE38 OE1 New development must complement or improve the amenity and character of the area. Protection and provision of landscaping on the property using natural features where possible. Consideration of other environmental impacts on the amenities of surrounding properties. Design Guide: Residential Layouts and House Design (3)(e) Consultations External Consultees NEIGHBOURS: No. consulted: 148 No. of replies: 1 Comments: 1. Concerned that Council proposes to affix railings on side boundary wall with 11 Yeading Lane, which belongs to owner of 11 Yeading Lane. Internal Consultees Traffic Engineer Trees/Landscape Officer Access arrangements to Yeading Lane remain unchanged from initial plans sighted by Traffic Engineer, and are considered acceptable. The proposed works are likely to result in loss of trees along the Yeading Lane frontage. Lack of uniform materials may result in piecemeal appearance. However, a suitable landscaping scheme along the frontage and use of climbing plants in other areas could reduce visual impacts. The provision of this detail can be secured through a condition of permission. Crime Prevention Officer See below. (3)(f) Main Planning Issues The main planning issues in respect of this development are: (i) (ii) (iii) Justification of the need for such fencing Effect on the character and visual amenities of the area Effect on the residential amenities of neighbouring occupiers Hayes Planning Committee – 1 May 2003 Page 20 PART 1 - MEMBERS, PUBLIC AND PRESS
(i) Justification of the need for such fencing The fencing has been requested by the Housing Department in response to incidents of anti-social behaviour, reported criminal activity and parking problems at the Langworth Drive sheltered housing complex. These problems are being exacerbated by the perceived vulnerability of the mainly elderly occupants, and the open nature of the estate. A letter of support works has been provided from the Metropolitan Police Crime Prevention Office, stating that: 1. the number of incidents at complex is unusually high in relation to the number of dwellings; 2. fencing will enhance “ownership” of the estate; and 3. fencing will reduce possibility of unauthorised intrusion and use of the estate as a shortcut which is exacerbated by the current lack of appropriate fencing. In addition, Housing Services has provided copies of correspondence relating to security problems at the Langworth Drive complex. Problems identified in the correspondence include burglary, frequent incidents of anti-social behaviour emanating from the adjacent bus stop/pub, extensive littering and non-residents parking on the site to access businesses on Uxbridge Road. Planning considers that adequate evidence has been provided to justify the requirement for this fencing. The fencing will prevent unauthorised parking in Langworth Drive, whilst serving to increase the perception of safety which will allow residents to better enjoy their space. (ii) Effect on the character and visual amenities of the area Whilst the proposed fencing will be visible from Yeading Lane and surrounding properties, it is considered that adequate measures have been undertaken to minimise visual amenity impacts. This includes limiting the height of the fencing to 1.8 metres, using visually permeable bars and a colour (e.g. Moss Green) that will blend with the vegetation behind to some degree. In addition, the visual impact of the front fence can be softened through the provision of appropriate landscaping behind the fence. This vegetation would be in addition to the existing vegetation that exists along portions of the property frontages. The provision of further appropriate landscaping is proposed to be secured by way of a condition. The return fencing on the side boundaries visible from Langworth Drive will again be kept to a maximum of 1.8 metres in height, with a 300mm high section of steelwork being added to the existing 1.5 metre high brick fences. This will again be of a moss green colour, and visually permeable. Timber trellis sections have been placed in areas that are particularly prominent from amenity space on the application site, or from people’s garden areas. It is felt that trellis is a less intrusive option, and does not detract significantly from people Hayes Planning Committee – 1 May 2003 Page 21 PART 1 - MEMBERS, PUBLIC AND PRESS
