Odiham parish council has no comments to offer. 16/01326/HOU 2 Clevedge Way, North Warnborough, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1EH. Proposed front and side extension. 16/01206/FUL Park Corner Farm, Hillside, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1JB. The proposal is for a 20m x 40m equestrian arena. Works to include a small amount of cut and fill, new land drains, membrane, stone base, silica sand and fibre surface. However, the council would be disappointed to see a subsequent application for lighting and would expect the use of the arena to remain solely private. 16/01078/HOU & 16/01079/LBC The White House, 36 High Street, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1LG. Erection of single-storey extension to rear; various internal and external alterations including removal of walls, insertion of new w/cs and bathrooms, alterations to openings and works to roof; site drainage works; conversion of garage to games room.

Odiham parish council raises no objection to this planning application, subject to Hart DCs parking guidelines being adhered to and would like to note that the property is within a Conservation Area. 60/16 CURRENT PLANNING APPLICATIONS 16/00635/FUL Amended Plans Land Adjacent to Crumplins Business Court, Dunleys Hill, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1DU. The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 Erection of 8 dwellings with garages and new access onto Dunleys Hill. Odiham parish council objects to this planning application on the basis of the following:- OPC recognises that work has been done to address some of the multiple issues raised in its comments relating to the original application. OPC would expect the proposer to pay full attention to the development principles available with respect to the site in the submitted Neighbourhood Plan and would expect further consideration of the flood risks (including those posed by surface water) to ensure symmetry between Hart DC s drainage maps and those used in this application. OPC would be disappointed to lose the opportunity to gain public benefit from a shared access with the open space proposed at Dunleys Hill in the Neighbourhood Plan. 2 of 6 160808 Planning Minutes
16/00606/REM Amended Plans Hatchwood Cottage, Farnham Road, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1AB. SITE LOCATION: Land South of Farnham Road, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1AQ. Reserved matters relating to appearance, landscaping, layout and scale pertaining to 15/00829/OUT: Development of up to 35 dwellings (including affordable units), new access from Farnham Road and other ancillary works. This comment should be read in conjunction with OPC s previous comments which, in the majority, still stand. OPC objects to this amended application. It sees that few of its detailed concerns, clearly communicated in its consultee response recorded on the Hart DC website on 8th April 2016, have been addressed. We would draw the applicant s attention to the following issues: the view; the unneighbourly relationship with Hatchwood Cottage; the failure to reduce ridge heights along the Eastern boundary of the development; the fact that the most southerly located houses are far too close to the mature, protected, trees on the south boundary to ensure that early felling requests will not occur. OPC sees little merit in the proposed woodland LEAP and the play area, the latter given its location. OPC s overall conclusion remains that this site simply cannot sustain 35 dwellings and retain a positive contribution to the community as required by the NPPF. The current layout bears no relation to any development at this end of the village. We invite the Planning Officer to a meeting with OPC to further discuss in detail our concerns and reservations which we do not have room to fully expand on and explain here. 16/01620/HOU Amended Plans Meadow View, King Street, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1NJ. Single storey rear extension and side porch and replacement of 4 existing windows on the front elevation with timber white sash windows to match. Odiham parish council raises no objection to this planning application, but would like to comment that it is hoped the new sash windows will slide and not tilt. 16/01786/HOU & 16/01600/LBC 6 High Street, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1LG. To replace the existing crittal style metal windows which are in poor condition with more suitable period style timber flush casement windows. To replace the existing 3 timber external doors with new more secure timber external doors in a more suitable period style. Odiham parish council wishes to leave it to the Conservation Officer to provide suitable advice. 16/01662/FUL Stapeley Farm, Long Lane, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1JE. Change of use from office space to residential space. 16/01781/HOU 10 Burgess Close, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1PG.

Odiham parish council objects to this planning application as it feels it is too premature for the discharge of any of the conditions at this time. OPC would like to draw attention to its previously submitted comments regarding 15/00829/OUT and 16/00606/REM and ask to have noted that we are particularly concerned about this aspect given our experiences in the nearby development at Montfort Place. 16/01838/HOU 35 King Johns Road, North Warnborough, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1EJ.

Odiham parish council objects to this planning application on the basis that it sees this proposal damaging the existing rhythm of predominantly single storey well placed dwellings. It also overwhelms any good design considerations as well as disturbing neighbours privacy. 16/01875/FUL Vallis House, Colt Hill, Odiham, Hook, Hampshire RG29 1AN. Erection of a detached two storey dwelling with associated access and parking. A resident addressed the meeting suggesting that Vallis House might be considered for emergency listing.

Case : Odiham parish council raises no objection in principle to this planning application.
