Pine View, Fairmile Park Road
Planning Application Ref:
2007/0562

Planning Objection

URGENT,  PLEASE!!

A NEW DEVELOPER IS NOW HAVING ANOTHER GO AT PINE VIEW!
Please have a look at the Planning application no. 2007/0562 which was posted outside 1 Tudor Close, opposite Pine View on Fairmile Park Road on 8th March 2007.  It seeks permission to demolish the existing Victorian house and to replace it with a three-storey block of 10 flats with parking space for 8 cars in the basement. 

The main concerns for us neighbours remain the same as last time, when about 60 letters from residents helped to defeat the last planning application and appeal in 2004:

1. Changing the character of a residential area at present consisting exclusively of detached houses, although several of these have been subdivided into a small number of flats.

2. Increasing traffic density and traffic hazard because of the significant increase of traffic on a narrow road, with the entrance to the proposed block of flats located at a blind corner, opposite a public footpath (#89).  Since many of us and our children walk or cycle along Fairmile Park Road, and there are no pedestrian pavements (which fits in with the leafy, semi-rural, character of our area), the increased hazard is of particular concern.

3. Losing an attractive Victorian “landmark” building and magnolia tree subject to preservation order.

The application may be inspected at the Town Planning Division, Elmbridge Borough Council, at the Civic Centre in Esher.  Objections to this planning application must be made within 21 days of posting, which is by Thursday, 29th March.  If there are more than ten written objections, residents have the right to address the relevant Planning Sub-Committee concerning the planning application.

Objections should be addressed to:

Mr. Martin Parker
Head of Town Planning
Elmbridge Borough Council
High Street, Esher, Surrey  KT10 9SD
