MARKET STREET CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER STATEMENT A draft copy of the character statement is attached for the Panel’s comments. Minutes: The Senior Building Conservation Officer introduced the proposed Market Street Conservation Area Character Statement. He noted that one of the main aims of the statement was to increase the size of the conservation area. He did however note that it was preferable to increase the size of this conservation area rather than declare further areas due to the bureaucratic obstacles associated with declaring an area.
A member of the Panel pointed out that the Thomas Cook statue was missing from the list of statues on page 6 of the document.
A member of the Panel queried whether it would be possible to declare a Granby Street Conservation Area. Officers in response stated that new planning legislation made declaring conservation areas more difficult.
A member of the Panel noted that the setting of boundaries was difficult but felt that this could be done on the basis of character that was contained within an area. Officers conceded that the Market Street, Belvoir Street and Granby Street all had different characters and separate conservation areas would probably be most appropriate. However it came down to resources. A member of the Panel also suggested that scale, theme and architecture could also be determinants of conservation area boundary.
A member of the Panel enquired about planning applications submitted within the proposed areas for the extension of the conservation area. Officers commented that there would be no statutory protection for these areas until the character statement was formally adopted.
Officer commented that it was hoped to formally declare the Character Statement in October.
Officers undertook to circulate to Panel Members information on what steps were required to declare a conservation area. |
