The application was introduced. Members were referred to the Update Sheet which set out an additional condition to remove permitted development rights as follows:
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, AA, B, C, D, E and F of Part 1; of Schedule 2 of the Order, and Class A of Part 2; 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, Dr Arnold David Boul, Kenneth Lee and Councillor Rona Blundell (Oliver’s Battery Parish Council) spoke in objection to the application and Duncan McCarthy spoke in support of the application and answered Members’ questions thereon.
The Committee proceeded to ask questions and debate the application.
RESOLVED:
