Issue - meetings

Approval of reserved matters following outline consent A/99/17/OUT for 175 No dwellings & associated infrastructure. This application may affect the setting of a listed building, may affect the character & appearance of the Angmering Conservation Area & falls within Strategic Site SD9, CIL Zone 1 (Zero Rated).

The Planning Officer was asked by the Committee to summarise the update reports that had been received for this item prior ahead of the meeting. The Planning Officer then provided members with a verbal summary of the updates that had been shared.

Members then took part in a full debate on the application where a number of points were raised including landscaping plans, consultation with the Angmering advisory groups regarding drainage and concerns with the fast turnaround timeframe that was being followed.

The Planning Officer, Engineering Services Manager and the Landscaping Officer provided members with answers to all points raised. The Group Head of Planning advised members that if they were considering further deferment of this item on the basis that the applicant would make further changes to the application, this would not be the case as the applicant had declined to take on board the comments raised at the last meeting. The Planning Officer then confirmed that the applicant had made fundamental changes since the application was first presented to the Council in June/July 2020.

          The Committee

                     RESOLVED

That the application be APPROVED as detailed in the report and report update subject to conditions outlined.
