Sympathetically design extension
PARISH councillors at Bishop Burton have “strongly objected” against proposals to extend a property in the village.
Mr and Mrs Trevor Thomas want to build single storey and first floor extensions and convert an existing attached garage and store to additional living accommodation at Stable Cottage, The Green.
A planning application has been submitted to the East Riding of Yorkshire Council and has been referred to the Eastern area planning sub committee for decision on Monday because of the parish council objection.
Parish councillors claim the development would be out of proportion with the area, creating an imposing building which would severely affect neighbouring properties.
Neighbouring property owners have also lodged objections.
But ERYC officers are recommending approval.
They say in a report: “The extensions and alterations as proposed to Stable Cottage are considered to have been sympathetically designed to the traditional character and appearance of the existing dwelling and its surroundings and have taken into account neighbouring properties.
