Public Participation:

 

Mr Gary Adlem, the Applicant, spoke in support of the application

 

The Chairman also noted a late submission from Mr Richard Longfox of Teffont Parish Council (see attached Schedule of late correspondence)

 

The planning officer outlined his report and ran through the amended plans for this property.

 

Technical questions were answered as follows:

 

·       With the additional loft conversion the property was now a 4-bedroom residence

·       The applicant had agreed to pay an additional S.106 contribution.

 

There was general support for the application to proceed on the basis laid out in the officer’s report, inclusive of the lower pitched garage roof agreed in negotiations with the applicant and a fixed opaque roof light replacing one of the existing rooflights, as promised verbally by the applicant at the meeting.

 

Resolved:

 

That subject to the applicant entering into an appropriate revised section 106 legal agreement to secure the appropriate financial contribution towards off-site recreational open space
