Councillor Jeremy Speakman declared a other significant interest in respect of application Y19/0285/CM – Breach of Planning Control. As his interest arose due to personal knowledge of the site, living in the area, being a member of the parish council on discussions relating to the site and being a trustee of land adjoining the site. He removed himself from the meeting for the discussion and voting.

Councillor Jenny Hollingsbee declared a voluntary announcement in respect of application 22/2155/SH – East Cliff Pavilion as she is known to the applicant. She remained in the meeting during discussion and voting on the item.

The report considers whether planning permission should be granted for the extensions and alterations that have been carried out to the application property, as well as seeking permission for an external spiral staircase/fire escape. The report assesses the visual amenity of the proposal and the amenity of neighbouring residents, finding that the proposal is acceptable and in accordance with adopted policy.
