The
Committee considered the report of the Head of Planning and
Development.
In
introducing the application, the Development Manager advised the
Committee that since publication of the agenda, Yalding Parish
Council had indicated that provided recommended condition 10
(Occupation of the Development for Bona Fide Holiday Purposes Only)
was attached to any planning permission, it would withdraw its
request that the application be refused.
The
Chairman said that the agent for the applicant had submitted a
statement to be read out at the meeting, but essentially it
addressed the points raised by the Parish Council which had now
provisionally removed its objection.
RESOLVED:
1. That permission
be granted subject to the conditions set out in the report
with:
The
amendment of condition 2 (Landscaping Scheme) to
(a)
specify that the landscaping scheme shall exclude the planting of
Sycamore trees and (b) require the use of non-plastic tree guards;
and
The
amendment of condition 4 (Biodiversity Enhancements) to specify
that the biodiversity enhancements shall include the installation
of bat tubes and bird boxes on the garage building and also
provision for bees.
2.
That the Head of Planning and Development be given delegated powers
to finalise the wording of the amended conditions and to amend any
other conditions as a consequence.
