Agenda item

Adam Lyus spoke in support of the application.

The planning officer introduced the report which recommended that planning permission be granted, subject to conditions. The application was originally brought to committee in 2013 when it was resolved to delegate to officers to approve the application subject to conditions and

completion of a Section 106 legal agreement. However, since that time, changes to the

Planning Practice Guidance relating to planning contributions warranted reconsideration

of the application. An overview of the application was provided and it was highlighted that the design of the scheme had not changed, attention was brought to the late observations.

The Committee then had the opportunity to ask technical questions and it was confirmed the application required re-determination as the decision notice had not yet been implemented.

Members of the public then addressed the Committee as detailed above.

The Committee expressed support for the officer’s recommendation and reasons provided in the report.  

Resolved:

To GRANT planning permission subject to the following conditions:

1.    The development hereby permitted shall be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission.

REASON: To comply with the provisions of Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.

2.    The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with the following approved plans: 788/CAM/2013/1 rev A - Proposed Plans and Elevations Received 16 July 2013

REASON: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.

3.    No development shall commence on site until details and samples of the materials to be used for the external walls and roofs have been inspected on site and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved details.

REASON: In the interests of visual amenity and the character and appearance of the area.

4.    The development hereby permitted shall not be first occupied until the first five metres of the access, measured from the edge of the carriageway, has been consolidated and surfaced (not loose stone or gravel). The access shall be maintained as such thereafter.

REASON: In the interests of highway safety.

5.    No part of the development hereby permitted shall be first occupied until the access and parking spaces have been completed in accordance with the details shown on the approved plans. The areas shall be maintained for those purposes at all times thereafter.

REASON: In the interests of highway safety.

6.    No development shall commence on site until a scheme for the discharge of surface water from the site (including surface water from the access/driveway), incorporating sustainable drainage details, has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The development shall not be first occupied until surface water drainage has been constructed in accordance with the approved scheme.

REASON: To ensure that the development can be adequately drained.

INFORMATIVE TO APPLICANT:

Any alterations to the approved plans, brought about by compliance with Building

Regulations or any other reason must first be agreed in writing with the Local Planning

Authority before commencement of work.

INFORMATIVE TO APPLICANT:

The applicant is requested to note that this permission does not affect any private

property rights and therefore does not authorise the carrying out of any work on land

outside their control. If such works are required it will be necessary for the applicant to

obtain the landowners consent before such works commence.

If you intend carrying out works in the vicinity of the site boundary, you are also

advised that it may be expedient to seek your own advice with regard to the

requirements of the Party Wall Act 1996.

INFORMATIVE TO APPLICANT:

Please note that Council offices do not have the facility to receive material samples.

Please deliver material samples to site and inform the Planning Officer where they are

to be found.
