A COUNCILLOR'S plan for a new garage was permitted by a planning committee.
Cllr Jan Warwick's plan, at The Old Vicarage, Main Road, Hursley, was brought before Winchester City Council's planning committee on December 13.
This is because of her position as a councillor.
In the planning report, it said: “The proposed garage, whilst located to the front of the dwelling, is set down at a lower level than the main house and has a modest scale and is of suitable design and materials.

“Therefore it is considered to preserve the significance and historic character of the listed building and the significance of the conservation area. It also results in no harm to the surrounding residential amenity. As such it is considered to be acceptable and in accordance with the development plan.”
The application was permitted unanimously.
