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

 

Councillor Martin of West Farleigh Parish Council (in support) and Mr Sewell, 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 and an informative.  In making this decision, the Committee was of the opinion that there was a bona fide requirement for accommodation to serve the farm and the form of built development and the quality of the landscaping and boundary treatments would not cause harm to the landscape.  The development would be energy efficient and sustainable.

 

RESOLVED:  That permission be granted subject to the conditions set out in the report and the additional condition and informative set out in the urgent update report.
