Minutes:

The Committee considered the report and the urgent update report of the Head of Development Management.

 

During the introduction of and discussion on the application, the Officers advised the Committee that if Members were minded to approve the application, they wished to amend the recommendation set out in section 4 of the report to give delegated powers to the Head of Development Management to be able to change, add, settle or amend any necessary planning conditions in line with the matters set out in the recommendation and as resolved by the Planning Committee and gain agreement from the applicant for pre-commencement conditions.  This would enable the Officers to strengthen conditions to ensure that measures promised by the applicant are provided and issues such as noise mitigation, obscure glazing, highway matters, trees and ecology are satisfactorily addressed.

 

Mrs Evans, an objector, Councillor Ireland of East Sutton Parish Council and Mr Hawkins, agent for the applicant, addressed the meeting in person.

 

RESOLVED:  That permission be granted subject to the conditions and informatives set out in the report with delegated powers given to the Head of Development Management to be able to change, add, settle, or amend any necessary planning conditions in line with the matters set out in the recommendation and as resolved by the Planning Committee and gain agreement from the applicant for pre-commencement conditions.  This should include a condition to address ecological matters (the provision of up-to-date information to assess the impact if any on protected species and a scheme for the enhancement of biodiversity).
