Minutes:

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

 

Councillor Aplin of Otham Parish Council (in support), Mr Quirke, the applicant, and Councillor Newton (Visiting Member) addressed the meeting.

 

Contrary to the recommendation of the Head of Planning and Development, the Committee agreed that subject to no new material planning issues being raised in response to the advertisement of the development as a departure from the Development Plan, the Head of Planning and Development be given delegated powers to grant permission subject to conditions to be agreed and finalised by the Head of Planning and Development; the conditions to cover, inter alia, archaeological field evaluation works and investigations, renewables, biodiversity enhancements, landscaping, tree protection measures and materials (with specific reference to lime render).

 

In making this decision, Members considered that the proposed development would not cause harm to the open countryside and that subject to appropriate conditions the development would be of a sufficient quality to outweigh the negative effect of its isolated location.

 

RESOLVED:  That subject to no new material planning issues being raised in response to the advertisement of the development as a departure from the Development Plan, the Head of Planning and Development be given delegated powers to grant permission subject to conditions to be agreed and finalised by the Head of Planning and Development; the conditions to cover, inter alia, archaeological field evaluation works and investigations, renewables, biodiversity enhancements, landscaping, tree protection measures and materials (with specific reference to lime render).
