Proposal Description: The proposal is for the construction of a new two storey detached dwelling at High Land, Lanham Lane.

The application was introduced. Members were referred to the update sheet which provided additional information regarding two additional conditions that were proposed:

Number 17. “Prior to the occupation of the dwelling hereby approved, full details of a cycle store shall be submitted to, and approved in writing, by the Local Planning Authority. The approved cycle store shall be installed prior to the occupation of the dwelling and retained on site thereafter. Reason: To ensure the development provides a facility for sustainable transport.”

Number 18. “Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 (or any Order revoking and re-enacting that Order with or without modification) no development permitted by Classes A and E of Part 1; of Schedule 2 of the Order, shall be carried out without the prior written consent of the Local Planning Authority. Reason: To ensure that the development is proportionate to the site in order to protect the amenities of the locality and to maintain a good quality environment.”

During public participation, Jonathan Bevan spoke in objection to the application and Julian Griffith spoke in support of the application and answered members' questions.

The committee proceeded to ask questions and debate the application and received advise from the Legal Adviser regarding a covenant on the land.

In addition, the Principal Planning Officer Team Leader recommended the following amendments:

1.    Page 170 of the agenda pack, regarding condition 9, contained the following wording "unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority." She advised that this wording was to be removed as the matters are as considered and potentially approved by members today.

2.    Page 173 of the agenda pack, condition 16 part B, contained the following wording "any deviation from works prescribed or methods agreed shall be agreed in writing," She advised that this wording was to be removed also.

These amendments were proposed and agreed by the committee.

RESOLVED

The committee agreed to grant permission for the reasons and subject to the conditions and informatives set out in the report and the update sheet including the additional conditions set out above and the amendment to conditions 9 and 16 agreed at the meeting.
