Minutes:
Resolved:
That the following observations be made on the applications listed
below:-
Former Savoy, Newcastle 18/00483/FUL
The Working Party considers the revised scheme to be
an improvement on previous proposals for this site. However, they
have concerns over the cladding on the upper floors which may cause
staining of the brickwork below, and suggest that a contrasting
dark colour brick would be a better alternative. Suggestion that
the projecting bricks may be a health and safety issue as they
would be ideal for climbing.

Kidsgrove Heritage Trail, various sites around Kidsgrove and
Butt Lane 18/00425/ADV

The
Working Party is very supportive and encouraging of the idea of the
proposed signs but has concerns regarding their quality and design.
It is particularly important that the materials and style of those
on the Canal are in keeping with the industrial heritage of the
Canals. The proposed acrylic would have a limited lifetime and
suggestion that the posts should be stainless steel with a round
profile rather than the rectilinear design that is currently
proposed. Suggestion that they have a black coating. Consultation
is needed with the Canals & Rivers Trust who may offer advice
on health and safety matters. Requests that the application comes
back to the Group when more information on the precise location and
design has been submitted.

Old
Vicarage, Haddon Lane, Maer
18/00705/FUL & 18/00706/LBC
The
Working Party objects to the scale and design of the proposed
orangery. The existing conservatory is simple in its design and it
fits comfortably under the window line at first floor level. The
proposal is too large and the height would interfere with the first
floor windows of the property. The shape of the footprint of the
orangery does not fit with the lines of the house and should be
rectangular. The design needs to be more modest and less fussy and
in particular, the cornice is too heavy. Requests that a revised
design comes back to the Group.
