2018 Applications:

Planning Application NumberDescription of ApplicationWM Planning Committee DateWM Parish Council Date Parish Council Response to the application
48/17/0064Erection of extension to rear of garage, installation of cctv system, replacement of shed with glasshouse, and replacement of side boundary gate at The Old Dairy, Dyers Lane, Bathpool.7th February 201813th February 2018 The Parish Council supports this application
 48/17/0065/LBErection of extension to rear of garage, installation of cctv system, replacement of shed with glass house and replacement of side boundary gate at The Old Dairy, Dyers Lane, Bathpool 7th February 2018 13th February 2018
 48/18/0001/T Application to carry out management works to one oak tree included in Taunton Deane Borough (West Monkton) Tree Preservation Order 1973 at Oak House, Monkton Heights, West Monkton (TD47). 7th February 201813th February 2018 The Parish Council supports this application

48/18/0004Replacement of garden shed with building attached to detached garage at 34 Mead Way, Monkton HeathfieldNot considered13th March 2018The Parish Council has no objection to the application.
48/18/0008Variation of condition No 2 (approved plans) of application 48/17/0003 at Torrington, Goosenford, Taunton7th March 201813th March 2018The application is not in keeping with the street scene. The first application 48/17/0003 made a good attempt to blend with the street scene: however, the addition of dormers and windows and the change to the elevation will make the building stand out in an obtrusive manner. The proposals will produce a three storey building (at the top of the hill) in a settlement area of mostly single and some two storey buildings.  Without a floor plan of the roof space for reference, the need for windows which clearly overlook the neighbours is questionable. The three front dormers look right across the road and down into the opposite property.
48/18/0009Erection of detached dwelling with associated works to the rear of 41 Greenway, Monkton Heathfield7th March 201813th March 2018The application location lies directly on a bat hunting corridor (verified by local reports), therefore the flying and feeding route would be disrupted. The Parish Council requests appropriate directional lighting to take this into account. The Parish Council wishes to stress that only one single dwelling should be allowed on this plot.
 48/18/0012Erection of 14 no. access staircases and platforms to provide access to storage containers at Easystore Southwest, land to west of Creech Castle, Bridgwater Road, Taunton. 3rd April 201810th April 2018 Planning Application Response
48/18/0015Display of 10no internally illuminated fascia signs at Hollywood Bowl Heron Gate3rd April 201810th April 2018 The Parish Council makes no comment on this appplication
48/18/0006Erection of 1 No. dwelling, double garage and associated woks in the garden to the south of Summercourt, Dosters Lane, West Monkton.3rd April 201810th April 2018On the site there is a large, mature tree, is there a TPO on it? If the tree is not protected, WMPC wishes to record its disappointment that the proposal indicates the removal of such a mature specimen. WMPC recommends that no dormers are to be added to the proposed dwelling. The proposed dwelling should be built of materials that are in keeping with the character of the surrounding buildings.
48/18/0011Erection of agricultural building for storage of machinery and fodder to land to the west of Warwick House, Sidbrook, Monkton Heathfield.N/A10th April 2018The current location will derive the next-door dwelling (Warwick House) of the sunset.  Because of this, and the fact that the current position of the proposed building would cause it to be very imposing on the street scene, West Monkton Parish Council recommends that the building is moved back from the road and further into the plot.  This will also minimise the effect of the large expanse of black bitumen roof.  The Parish Council recommends that the building should be screened from the road side.  West Monkton Parish Council would prefer to see a green or grey roof rather than a black one.
48/18/0019Application to fell and replace one maple tree included in Taunton Deane Borough (West Monkton No.4) Tree Preservation Order 1989 at 4 St Quintin Park(TD450)N/A10th April 2018Supports the application and suggests a replacement planting of a slower growing tree e.g. oak.
48/18/0014Installation of a heat pump unit for central heating on garage roof (retention of works already undertaken) at Glenrose, 89 Greenway, Monkton Heathfield.2nd May 20188th May 2018The street scene is affected by the installation.  It is suggested that the heat pump unit is turned through an appropriate degree (applicant suggested 30 degrees) to diminish the sound and direct it into trees.  The Parish Council recommends that acoustic louvres are fitted around the heat pump unit to reduce the sound and to turn the heat pump through 90 degrees which would not reduce air flow, but which would reduce the impact on the street scene.  The Parish Council would support the written recommendation from the TDBC Environmental Health Officer who attended the property.

48/18/0027Erection of mono pitch roofed shed at 20 Elms Estate, Monkton Heathfield (retention of works already undertaken).  6th June 201812th June 2018This is a large and obvious structure in the front garden of a residential property, which clearly affects the street scene of the road where it is located, but also it is visible from the A3259 nearby, so affects the wider street scene of the surrounding area.  It attempts to set a precedent that is not acceptable.
48/18/0031/LBVarious internal and external works at Glebe Court, Church Hill, West Monkton.–12th June 2018The Parish Council supports the application
48/18/0029Erection of trellis on top of the existing fence at 25 Aginhills Drive, Monkton Heathfield4th July 201810th July 2018The Parish Council supports the application
48/18/0032Outline planning permission with some matters reserved (except for access and layout) for the erection of 2 no. detached dwellings in the garden to the rear of Nigella, Church Lane, West Monkton.4th July 201810th July 2018The materials need to be in keeping with the village. It is crucially important that the existing trees are retained on the south of the application site plan, as the contours of the site are so steep there is a significant risk of overlooking the properties to the south. For the same reason – steep contours – the Parish Council would wish a specification that both the dwellings should be retained as single storey with no more storeys permitted to be added or development in the roof space, as this would negatively impact on the skyline.
