Minutes:
All members of the committee stated that they had been lobbied.
The Committee considered the report and urgent update report of the Head of Planning.
Mr Moon, for the objectors, Councillor Scott of West Farleigh Parish Council, Councillor Charlton of East Farleigh Parish Council, Councillors Mrs Gooch, Mortimer and Mrs Stockell addressed the meeting.
Contrary to the recommendation of the Head of planning, the Committee agreed to refuse permission. In making this decision, Members felt that they supported the reasons for refusal recommended by the Highway Authority and that the application should be refused on highway grounds.
RESOLVED: That permission be refused for the following reason:-
The traffic generated by the development would by reason of the restricted width, location and poor alignment of the site access together with the general alignment and width of St Helens Lane in the vicinity of the access point, result in conditions prejudicial to highway safety on St Helens Lane.
