Holidays

On the 18 June 2014, the Ward Committee agreed to object to this application. While the store opening times have changed and therefore there should be some flexibility in delivery hours, we felt that this needed to be balanced with consideration for local residents.

Just a single for the week before last, plus an update on the re-application for the land behind Eastbourne House on Yardley Road.

2014/00569/PA - 92 Shirley Road, Acocks Green, B27 7NA
Erection of two storey side and rear and single storey front and rear extensions, installation of rear dormer and new pitch roof to existing detached store

Eastbourne House - land off Beeches Road
This application appeared and disappeared a couple of weeks ago. I've investigated this, after concerns were raised by residents. It appears that the planning officer who dealt with the (now lapsed) planning approval back in 2008 noticed some discrepancies over the issue of lost open space, as the plan is to build on the playing fields behind the former private school. Accordingly, the plans were pulled pending the resolution of this matter, but not before some notifications had been sent out to some local residents. Once answers have been obtained, then the public consultation process will start again - probably this week.

Ltd, Tyseley, B11 3EZVariation of condition number 7 attached to planning approval 2010/01029/PA to amend the wording to
read 'No development, save for works of demolition and site clearance, shall take place until details of the
number, design, location and post development monitoring arrangements of (bird nesting boxes/bat boxes/bricks/tubes) to be provided as part of the development has been submitted to and approved in
writing by the Local Planning Authority. The bird/bat boxes shall be installed in accordance with the approved details and thereafter maintained'

The wording currently reads:
No development shall take place until details of the number, design, location and post-development
monitoring arrangements of (bird nesting boxes/bat boxes/bricks/tubes) to be provided as part of the
development, has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The
bird/bat boxes shall be installed in accordance with the approved details and thereafter maintained.
Reason: To enhance the nature conservation interest of the site in accordance with Paragraphs 3.37-
3.40 of the Birmingham UDP 2005, PPS9 and the Nature Conservation Strategy for Birmingham SPG.

This would seem to allow clearance to clear the site BEFORE the nature conservation measures have been installed.
