PDF 256 KB 16.1104.FUL Jubilee Cottage , item 5. PDF 271 KB Minutes: Resolved:- That the following observations be made on the application listed below:- 42 Albert Terrace, Wolstanton 16/00996/FUL No objections 3 Gower Street, Newcastle 16/01049/FUL The plans do not appear to match the elevation drawings which is misleading and unsure how the roof will work. The appearance is fussy in this respect but no objections to the principle of the extension if this can be clarified. Yates Wine Lodge, Ironmarket 16/01076/ADV The new fascia sign and rear sign are wholly unacceptable on the Listed Building and within the Town Centre Conservation Area. The letters should be retained within the fascia sign on the front and are too obtrusive on the rear. They are unacceptably large and harmful to the special character of the area. All signs should be fixed into the mortar joints. The hanging sign and menu signs are ok. 4 Barn Court, Clayton 16/01052/FUL Poor design with a complicated and fussy roof but not visible from anywhere so no harm will be caused to the Conservation Area. No objections. 12 Station Road, Madeley 16/01054/FUL CAWP objects to the flat roof on the extension on what is a characterful house with a deep hipped roof. Care will be needed on the window detailing and would like this to be conditioned. Jubilee Cottage, 5 Maer Village, Maer 16/01104/FUL No objections to the garage but CAWP is disappointed with the overbearing detail on the rear extension. This should be subservient to the main house which has a simple Estate style and character and will appear unbalanced with the large timber framed gable and large porch. They are concerned about the practicality of building the extension so close to the next door and possible damp issues.
6.	Urgent Business To consider any business which is urgent within the meaning of Section 100B(4) of the Local Government Act, 1972. Minutes: Former Savoy Cinema, 72 High Street, Newcastle 16/00933/FUL The Working Party feels that the additional visuals were useful showing that the original ones were very misleading and still retains its previous comments.
