Minutes:

All Members except Councillor Young stated that they had been lobbied.

 

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

 

Mr Cheek, the applicant, addressed the meeting.

 

Contrary to the recommendation of the Head of Planning and Development, the Committee agreed to grant permission subject to conditions to be agreed and finalised by the Head of Planning and Development acting under delegated powers.  In making this decision, Members considered that the density of the development would not result in significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and that the proposals provided an acceptable level of amenity for future occupiers and would not affect the amenity of the existing neighbours.

 

RESOLVED:  That permission be granted subject to conditions to be agreed and finalised by the Head of Planning and Development acting under delegated powers; the conditions to include but not be limited to biodiversity enhancements (swift bricks/bee bricks etc.) and the incorporation of obscured glazing if appropriate.
