| 1. | The application site includes part of the rear curtilage of an existing
hotel situated within the defined area of prime holiday accommodation in
the Great Yarmouth Seafront Local Plan where it is the Council's policy
to encourage improvements in the standard of holiday accommodation in
order to meet the ever increasing expectation of visitors.Moreover, in
order to ensure that a reasonable level of holiday accommodation is
available to sustain a buoyant tourism industry, the Great Yarmouth
Seafront Local Plan states that there will be a presumption against any
change of use of existing holiday accommodation to permanent residential,
aged person's accommodation and any other non-compatible uses within the
defined areas of prime holiday accommodation.The proposal to extend the
residential home and form a residents garden in the curtilage of the
hotel at 60 Wellesley Road would therefore be contrary to the provisions
of the Plan and if approved would create an undesirable precedent for
similar developments within the prime holiday areas and be prejudicial to
the Council's strategy for tourism. |
| 2. | The Pre-Deposit Consultation Draft of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide
Local Plan was issued for consultation purposes on 1st.August 1994 and
reinforced the policy relating to prime holiday accommodation as
contained in the Great Yarmouth Seafront Local Plan.Although the
application site was included in an area designated for prime holiday
accommodation purposes in the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan
Deposit Version - October 1995, The Borough Council approved some changes
to the Deposit Version of the plan in April 1996 which suggested that the
area containing the application site be designated as a Secondary Holiday
Accommodation Area.The suggested change is presently under consideration
by the Inspector following the recent completion of the Public Inquiry
relating to the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan.The proposal is
therefore considered to be premature pending the outcome of the Public
Inquiry in that approval at this stage would be potentially prejudicial
to the determination by the Inspector of appropriate local plan policies
for the area. |
| 3. | The erection of the proposed extension across the full width of the
garden area at the rear of 60 Wellesley Road and facing the rear aspect
of the adjacent properties constitute a cramped, unneighbourly and
substandard form of tandem development which, if approved, would create
an undesirable precedent for further similar developments in the locality
the cumulative effect of which would result in an cramped and substandard
layout of land. |
