schedule of planning applications

provide room for 4 small vehicles off road, vehicle
doors could not be opened. Accordingly only 3
useable parking spaces are available. Vehicles so
parked will encroach on the walk-way forcing
pedestrians onto the lane with traffic, and typical
family sized vehicles will encroach onto the road area
of the lane. We note that the "Supporting Planning
Statement" from Mr. B. Twigg labours on the provision
of parking spaces. He stresses that there is off road
parking for visitors within 3 separate paragraphs of his
statement. As he states the owners have 2 vehicles.
This leaves space for one further vehicle. We judge
that this is inadequate provision either for visiting
clients or for any additional staff required in the future
and that if used in support of a business will increase
the risk to pedestrians using the lane to access
property or schools.
This planning application is to use the newly built
structure for physiotherapy/acupuncture/massage and
the website and trade vehicle associated with the
business notes that this is for "pets and their owners".
It is inevitable that a business of this nature will
produce contaminated products, at a minimum
acupuncture needles and associated blood
contaminated material and likely animal waste. The
planning application does not address these issues; it
states in section 11 "unknown"against the statements
"Please state how foul sewage is to be disposed of"
and "Are you proposing to connect to existing
drainage system?". However the plans for the
structure show a sink within it.
Section 16 of the planning application form regarding
trade effluent. "Does the proposal involve the need to
dispose of trade effluents or waste?" This has been
filled in as "no". Therefore there appears to be no
provision to safely deal with any contaminated
products that result from the business. We judge that
this will result in an unacceptable health hazard in this
residential area.
In conclusion, and drawing from the extract of the
East Dorset Local Plan noted by Mr Twigg,
developments will not be permitted that will impose
unacceptable impacts from existing or likely future
development in terms of health, safety and traffic. We
consider that these conditions pertain in this instance
and object to the planning application on that basis
and request that it is not approved.
