The Area Planning Sub-Committee South of Epping Forest Council met on Wednesday 12 June 2024 to discuss several planning applications. Key decisions included the approval of a first-floor extension at 18 Kenilworth Gardens, Loughton, and the refusal of a natural burial ground at land to the south of Chigwell Rise. The committee also approved the demolition of two semi-detached dwellings to be replaced with six apartments at 233-235 Fencepiece Road, Chigwell, and approved modifications to 2 Danbury Road, Loughton, with additional conditions.
18 Kenilworth Gardens, Loughton
The committee approved the application for a first-floor extension, demolition of the existing rear conservatory, and erection of a new single-storey rear extension with a roof light at 18 Kenilworth Gardens, Loughton. The decision was made despite objections from the town council and a neighbour, who cited concerns about the extension being overbearing and causing a loss of residential amenity.
Land to the South of Chigwell Rise
The proposal to develop a natural burial ground at land to the south of Chigwell Rise was refused. The committee found that the development would harm the openness of the Green Belt and negatively impact the landscape character. Concerns were also raised about the lack of necessary facilities to operate the burial ground and potential flooding issues.
233-235 Fencepiece Road, Chigwell
The committee approved the demolition of two semi-detached dwellings to be replaced with six apartments at 233-235 Fencepiece Road, Chigwell. The approval was granted despite objections from neighbours regarding noise pollution and parking issues. The committee added a condition requiring details on how the car lift would comply with noise restrictions.
2 Danbury Road, Loughton
The committee approved modifications to 2 Danbury Road, Loughton, including a new porch and minor window alterations. Additional conditions were imposed to restrict the property to C3A use (single household), remove permitted development rights, and require a comprehensive landscaping plan for the entire site.
