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

 

Mrs Davis, an objector, Councillor Powell of Harrietsham Parish Council, Mr Beck, for the applicant, and Councillor J Sams (Visiting Member) addressed the meeting.

 

RESOLVED:  That consideration of this application be deferred to:

 

·  Ask the applicant to agree to the removal of the existing septic tank from the site and any associated pollution;

 

·  Ask the Environment Agency to consider the specific biomedical contamination impacts of a care home (the potential for effluent to contain a high proportion of medicines);

 

·  Investigate how the generator backup system is managed to maintain connections to the pump house because of the sensitivity of the chalk streams and the River Len;

 

·  Ask Natural England whether it has any concerns regarding the potential impact of the development on watercourses and ecology;

 

·  Ascertain distances to watercourses/bodies (ponds and streams) (Condition 2.3.1 of the Environment Agency Permit EPR/LB3798VP) and seek further clarification from various consultees as to whether any adverse impacts arise from that proximity, including the potential impact on white-clawed crayfish and the Desmoulin’s whorl snail; and

 

·  Seek the advice of Building Control regarding the management of the drainage field.
