Planning Application : 21/01654/FUL 
Erection of a 1.5 metre high boarded garden fence (in retrospect) at 27 Southfield
Road, Cumbernauld 
Further Representation 
Mrs B. Mitchell
31 Southfield Road
CUMBERNAULD
G68 9DQ 
The fundamental issues concerning this fence have not changed therefore I fail to understand
why the owner at 27 feels he needs the case reviewed again apart from as a  delaying
tactic.  The decision should be upheld for all the reasons previously provided. However, I have
provided photographic evidence of how my property next door but one has been affected so
that the resident can see why the neighbours are not happy and how it affects their property.
I feel that the resident should have looked at the street as you would “read a room” and see
that no one else has a  fence of this size and that you cannot just turn up in an open plan
street that was built 30 years ago and make your own rules, contrary to the missives and upset
the residents without any thoughts of how this would impact and obstruct other properties and
their outlook in the area. 
The photographs attached show the view from the end of my drive now and shows both the
obstruction and blot on the landscape we are now looking at.  This is both a danger and an
eyesore. As I am lower down the hill the fence appears to be way higher than 5 foot high as I
have to look up and try see over it. The hill is on a bend and I could previously see up past the
top house but can see no further than the fence now, which is a danger for my family
reversing/driving in and out the drive and furthermore,  I certainly would not have purchased
a house with this outlook and I believe this will impact on any future sales of not only my
property but also number 29 next door to the fence.
