| The five-bedroomed house is set to become a children's care home |
IT looks like the planning green light will be given for a two-storey semi-detached house to be converted to a children's care home in Barnoldby-le-Beck.
Other householders in Beck Farm Mews have objected on the grounds firstly of loss of parking and secondly that the property has only a small back garden for children to play in.
There has also been concern about the potential for antisocial behaviour.
But when North East Lincolnshire Council's planning committee meets on Wednesday of next week (June 12), members will be recommended to approve the application.
Says case officer Owen Toop: "The proposal seeks to maintain a residential use in a residential area albeit of a different use class.
"The overall intensity of the use of the site would not significantly change to what may reasonably be expected at a dwelling house.
"It is not considered that there would be any significant impacts on the neighbouring properties' residential amenities or additional harm to highway safety, amenity or crime.
"The general appearance of the property would not be altered and so the visual character of the area would not be harmed.
"Finally the safety of the children has been considered acceptable by the police."
The change-of-use application has been submitted by the firm, Gravity Red Inspires, which describes itself as a "residential children's home and adult supported living provider".
"We are dedicated to providing a nurturing and safe environment where individuals can grow and thrive," they say.
"Our staff are passionate about supporting all individuals and providing them with respect, and love.
"They strive to make a positive difference in the lives of the people they serve."
Their Barnoldby-le-Beck project would accommodate three resident children, aged 10 to 17, with two non-resident care staff working on a duty rota of 8am to 10.30pm.
