3 Public Speakers

Approval of reserved matters following outline consent AL/113/21/OUT for 67 No. houses. This application is a Departure from the Development Plan and is in CIL Zone 3 and is CIL Liable as new dwellings.

The Planning Area Team Leader presented the report with updates. This was followed by 3 Public Speakers. Members then took part in a debate on the application and raised concerns over the location of the proposed play area and whether it should be closer to and within site of the affordable housing, the impacts from the development to Level Mare Lane as only 6 of the 67 houses would be accessible from this road, and the unpopularity of the proposals with some of the local community. The recommendation was then proposed by Councillor Bower and seconded by Councillor Chace.

The Committee

RESOLVED

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