Decisions:

            AL/91/19/PL – Removal of conditions 2, 3, 4 & 5 following AL/95/86 relating to number of caravans on site, electric service lines, no works constituting development required by the condition of a site licence & existing boundary hedges retained in current form, Beechfield Park, Hook Lane, Aldingbouorne

 

Having received a report on the matter, Members were supportive of the proposal but did express reservations with regard to the condition relating to the removal of the existing boundary hedges, even though the applicant had stated that was not the intention.  It was therefore agreed that conditions 2, 3 & 4 could be removed and condition 5 would be amended to ensure retention of the boundary hedge.

 

            The Committee then

 

RESOLVED

 

That removal of conditions 2, 3 & 4 be agreed and condition 5 be amended to read:-

Reason: To ensure the retention of existing screening vegetation important to the visual amenityof the streetscene in accordance with policy D DM1 of the Arun Local Plan.
