21/00089/FUL 1 Mallory Road, Perton, WV6 7XN
Installation of fence to boundary of property adjacent Severn Drive

Comments:
An enforcement notice was moved against this fence line on the following grounds:
1. This property is on the corner of Severn Drive and Mallory Road. Severn Drive is a very busy road leading to the rear car park of Sainsbury’s, the Wrottesley Arms, the library and the shopping centre. The traffic and the footfall are heavy.
2. The fence line obscures the sight of traffic leaving Mallory Road in both directions.
3. Every evening cars are parked on both sides of Severn Drive in this location.
4. The property to the rear would have poor visibility of approaching cars and pedestrians.
5. The adjacent bungalows to the north on Severn Drive have elderly residents who would also have poor visibility.
6. Severn Drive curves away at this point which limits existing visibility.
7. The street scene would be very much affected by this fence. Our open frontages prevent crime by allowing clear views of neighbouring properties. Refused
21/00011/FUL Cranmoor Lodge Farm, Wrottesley Park Road, Perton, WV8 2HS
Change of use from residential to offices

Comments:
The Parish Council have been informed that there is a covenant on this development to prevent business use.
The Parish Council has serious concerns on Highway grounds:
A) the road to the development has a concealed entrance with no signage on Wrottesley Park Road.
B) the farm road is single track with only two passing places.
C) the road is a direct connection to the Staffordshire Way and is very well walked, especially during the pandemic.
D) the junction is a crossing point for people leaving Bluebell Wood and crossing to the farm road.
E) there is already frequent and heavy traffic to Brownies, a nursery and farm shop, situated on the junction.
F) the proposed business use would increase the traffic into this road with staff and clients, disturbing the residents, as this is a quiet residential area.
G) the land is covenanted for residential use only Approved

21/00186/FUL 27 Richmond Drive, Perton, WV6 7RR
The proposal seeks to develop the existing 4-bedroom detached house with 2no single garages, by;- Converting the single garage nearest the house into a new main entrance with new front door, new ground floor toilet, new utility and new hall.
