Application for 132530/FO/2021 - 320 Wilmslow Road Manchester M14 6XQ – Old Moat Ward The report of the Director of Planning, Building Control and Licensing is enclosed. Minutes: This application was for a change of use of the ground floor of a long-established hair salon/barbers in the Fallowfield District Centre, to provide a bar-restaurant at ground floor with a reduced-scale salon in the basement. The 5-bedroom duplex residential flat above the property would be retained.
The proposed bar/restaurant provides 34no. covers internally and in two external seating areas. These offer a further 22no. covers. External seating was proposed in two locations; on the front forecourt which will be separated from the public footpath by a small brick wall with railings and planters, and on a section of unadopted alleyway alongside the site that is within the site. A small (11.2m2) single storey rear extension was also proposed to accommodate a toilet block.
Access for the basement salon and flat was proposed via the unadopted alleyway and a new entrance in the rear yard. Segregated bin storage for the bar and residential flat would be taken from the rear yard. A new bin store for the salon was proposed in the side alleyway between the seating area and rear yard access.
A total of 94 neighbours and 1 resident’s association were notified of the application. 32 objections and 7 letters of support were received.
The Planning Officer informed the Committee that the applicant had requested a deferral in order to allow time for revisions to be made to the proposed scheme to seek to overcome the recommended reasons for refusal.. The Planning Officer confirmed that they were in agreement with this request.
The Chair invited the Committee to make comments or ask questions.
Councillor Andrews moved the request to defer the application. Councillor Richards seconded the proposal.
