schedule of planning applications

should be sited on the outskirts of town so that the
effects of the noise pollution are reduced.
9. The proposed use would increase the traffic on the
already busy New Road and through the town.
10. There seems to be inadequate flood risk and
surface water management measures to manage the
surface water run-off. There has already been a major
issue with water coming from the subject property
onto my property which resulted in my having to
spend a large sum of money in re-tarmacking my
driveway. The proposed development will only worsen
this problem due to the increased amount of
hardstanding required. Alleviating this problem with
gravel would only increase the issue with noise.
11. The subject property is sited on a slightly elevated
position compared with my adjacent property. There is
currently only a low fence between our properties in
the front garden. My property is a chalet bungalow,
therefore most of my home (including bathrooms and
bedrooms) is on the ground floor which would be
overlooked, both by the visitors parking at the property
and the pedestrians going down the side of my
property to access the reception. I also think that the
roofs of the cattery pens themselves and the reception
will be visible from my property.
12. In relation to the proposed new additional use of
the property, I would have expected there to be an
environmental health issue arising from running both
the existing catering business and the proposed
cattery business from the same premises.
13. I am concerned that there may be a risk of
contamination from the cats. This would include from
their faeces and urine and any diseases the cats may
carry. I am concerned that there may be a potential for
the odour to create a nuisance.
14. I think that the proposed development may also
attract foxes and vermin due to any left over food.
15. If any of the cats were to escape onto the busy
New Road this could create potential accidents.
Further letter received 1.5.13
I confirm my views remain as set out in my letter of 5
February 2013.
I would add that since my letter the applicants have
removed my fencing without my permission along the
boundary between 319 and 321 New Road. The
applicants have instead erected tall fencing along this
boundary which is not vertical and is significantly
leaning diagonally over my property. In any high wind
this fencing would easily fall down onto my property
and do significant damage to cars parked below it. In
addition, the fencing nearly touching the gutters of my
