12150 – DECISIONS TO BE CONSIDERED BY SWANLEY TOWN COUNCIL

23/03082/FUL 162 Lullingstone Avenue Swanley Kent BR8 7JR – COMMENTS DUE BY 31/01/2024
Detached 3 bedroom dwelling in side garden including off road parking.
NO OBJECTION – In 2019 we objected to this application (19/01698) and our previous reservations still apply. Additionally, we believe that this building would be out of context with surrounding properties, contrary to planning policy EN2. However, as the design and scale of this application has not changed since being approved by Sevenoaks District Council in 2019, we regrettably can offer no objection. We would, due to the close proximity to a railway line of this application, propose that an advisory for a noise and vibration assessment survey is put forward. Additionally, as this location often floods, a flood risk survey is recommended.

12151 – DECISION MADE BY PLANNING AUTHORITY

23/03028/FUL The Cotton Mill Station Road Swanley
Construction of two single storey extensions, a covered parasol and new front wall with entrance gate and fence. Boundary treatment with decking and steps. Solar panels.
GRANTED – STC COMMENT – NO OBJECTION 22/11/2023
