12636 REFUSED PLANNING APPLICTIONThe town council refused the following application: Erection of single storey extension and partial conversion of garage to living accommodation to rear of 24 Trinity Close, Wellington (43/2004/004) because the proposal would result in the loss of vehicle parking facilities and would therefore encourage parking on the highway with the consequent risk of additional hazards to all users of the road which would not be in the interests of highway safety, contrary to policies S1 and H19 of the Taunton Deane Local Plan Revised Deposit.
