Date		Reference		Address		Description	Decision
06-Jul-18		18/01785/FUL		The Paddocks Manley Road, Frodsham		Change of use of part of field to provide stable and hardstanding	Approval, see note below which relates to FTC comments
The Planning Officer’s report states: “The existing field access is to be utilised, with the applicant stating it has good visibility splays in either direction. The parish council however consider the visibility splays are poor, and repositioning of the access could help. On assessment of the proposal, the access is existing and appears acceptable. Given the level of activity likely the development is not considered to result in a severe impact on the highway network.”
13-Jul-18		18/01978/FUL		43 Netherton Drive, Frodsham		Single storey side/rear extension with associated alterations	Approval
13-Jul-18		18/01649/FUL		Morrisons 10 – 16 High Street, Frodsham		External works to car park entrances and re-location of refrigeration plant	Approval, see note below which relates to FTC comments
The Planning Officer’s report states: “It is intended to remove an area of cobbles which are on the High Street access road and replace them with tarmac. During the winter months, vehicles turning into the car park from the High Street are sliding on the cobbles, causing a hazard to pedestrians and other vehicles. Given the site is located within the Conservation Area, it was considered to retain some of the cobbles at the point where the access road meets the High Street and the plans have been amended to reflect this.””The highway officer has considered the proposals and raises no objections. However, he points out that some of the cobbles are likely to form part of highway land so they can’t be removed without first discussing with the Councils Area Highways Office and getting their consent. A note can be added to any permission to this effect.”
19-Jul-18		18/02067/FUL		24 St Lawrence Road, Frodsham		Loft conversion with rear facing skylights and side facing landing window	Approval, see note below which relates to FTC comments

The conditions include: “The window on the side elevation of the development hereby approved shall be non-opening below 1.7 metres (when measured above internal floor level) and glazed wholly with obscured glass to a minimum Pilkington Privacy Level 3 or equivalent to and thereafter maintained in that condition and glazed with obscure glass to a minimum Pilkington Privacy Level 3 and thereafter maintained in that condition. No other windows or other openings shall be introduced on the above-mentioned elevations without the express consent in writing of the local planning authority.” “Reason. To safeguard the privacy of both the occupants of adjacent properties and of the development hereby approved, to protect the amenities of people living nearby.”
