APPRAISAL

By full committee on …… 13 November 2024 …… with …… 3 …… members present

Issued on 13 Nov 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:

no objections to the balcony, dormer and door alterations but the air conditioning units at the rear first floor level are particularly visually intrusive being sited in such a prominent way. However, the building is not of such high quality or character and will probably have limited impact on the conservation area as a whole.
