B.    Refuse to the representations made for conditions 6 and 12 for the following reasons:
      Condition 6
      1.    The use of outdoor areas by guests accommodated on the site has the potential to
            adversely impact resident’s amenity, given the pool and outdoor areas are located
            within reasonable proximity to nearby houses.
      2.    The restriction on use of outdoor areas only applies to use of the property for short
            term accommodation and does not apply to the residential use of the property by
            owners.
      Condition 12
      1.    Sealing of the shared access driveway will improve the safety of the driveway for
            visitors and guests; and
      2.    Sealing the shared access driveway will limit the potential impacts on neighbouring
            residents’ amenity.
C.     Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
