AN APPLICATION to demolish an existing semi-detached bungalow with the erection of a detached dormer bungalow has been withdrawn. Mrs Jane Sleep had applied for the permission at the property on Bodinnick Road in St Tudy. The application had received two objections – one from a resident and one from St Tudy Parish Council.  

Mrs Deborah Fulcher had raised concerns that the application photograph did not show that the proposed two storey development had an impact on and overlooked her lower level back garden. She further alleged that the application’s plans had shown a two storey house and not a dormer bungalow as the application stated.  

St Tudy Parish Council further objected to the application on a number of grounds. These were the overdevelopment of the site, the overlooking of neighbours, particularly the property owned by Mrs Fulcher, a lack of site plan to understand distance from boundaries, the fact it was not a bungalow but a two storey house and lack of details on drainage and impact on the adjacent semi-detached property.
