Having considered the officer's report, Councillor Jason Perry proposed and Councillor Steve Hollands seconded REFUSAL, on the grounds of overdevelopment, loss of amenity, parking congestion and impact on highway safety, and the Committee voted 2 in favour, 3 against, so this motion fell.

 

The Committee then voted on a second motion to APPROVE, proposed by Councillor Paul Scott and seconded by Councillor Humayun Kabir, 3 in favour and 2 against, so permission was GRANTED for development on land at the rear of 28 and 29 Boxford Close, South Croydon, CR2 8SY.
