Minutes:

The Committee considered the report of the Head of Planning and Development.

 

In introducing the report, the Principal Planning Officer advised the Committee that he had received an email that afternoon from the applicant advising that they would be prepared to accept a condition for a ‘Construction Safety Management Strategy Plan’.  It was the Officers’ advice that since the applicant had submitted an appeal to the Planning Inspector on the grounds of non-determination of the application, they should advance that through the appeal process as part of their proposals for suggested conditions.

 

Councillor Hickmott of Otham Parish Council had given notice of his wish to address the Committee but was unable to attend the meeting due to illness.

 

Councillor Newton addressed the meeting in person on behalf of Downswood Parish Council and in his capacity as Ward Member.

 

RESOLVED:  That the Planning Inspectorate be advised that the Committee would have granted permission as per the original recommendation contained in the report to the meeting of the Committee held on 17 February 2022 but with an amendment to condition 30 (Off-Site Highway Works) to remove reference to 31 December 2023 for the reasons set out in the report to this meeting.
