Description of proposed works: Replacement of existing timber fascia's, soffits, tudor boards with white composite boarding, guttering and downpipes

APPRAISAL

By full committee on …… 9 October 2024 …… with …… 4 …… members present

Issued on 10 Oct 2024

1. Positive support		2. No objection	X
3. Objection		4. Objection unless revised as below
5. No comment/neutral		6. Lack of detail
7. Decision already issued

Reason:

The proposal is to replace the listed items (fascia, soffits etc) with composite materials and not the stated uPVC in the above description. While maintaining the stance that like-for-like wood would be preferable, the CAAC accepts the replacement of the proposal for uPVC by composite. (For avoidance of doubt, the CAAC maintains its objection to the front door (in planning application 24/02174 for the same property) on the grounds of its design is not in-keeping with the extant elevation, rather than for its use of composite.)
