The
Committee considered the report of the Head of Planning and
Development.
In
presenting the application, the Principal Planning Officer advised
the Committee that reference was made in the report to the proposed
development being Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)
liable. However, because there was no
net gain in floor area, CIL would not be payable on this
scheme.
RESOLVED:
1. That permission
be granted subject to the conditions and informatives set out in
the report with:
An
additional condition requiring the installation of Solar PV panels
within the development;
An
additional condition requiring the provision of electric vehicle
charging points for 5% of the parking spaces; and
An
additional informative advising the applicant that the biodiversity
enhancements referred to in condition 6 should include the
incorporation of bat tubes and bee bricks within the amenity
blocks.
2. That the Head
of Planning and Development be given delegated powers to finalise
the wording of the additional conditions and informative and to
amend any other conditions as a consequence.
