[To determine the application]

Minutes:

The Committee received a report regarding application 14/01210/FUL, 15 apartments.

 

Some members of the Committee requested, on the basis of the complexity and scale of the site, that consideration of the application be deferred pending a site visit.

 

Andy Carter, Senior Planning Officer reported on the background to the site and the application. He drew the Committee’s attention to the application site being a part of a wider development site on which Committee approval had previously been granted for a residential development comprising conversion of the existing school building to create 12 apartments, erection of 18 houses and three story building containing 15 apartments.

 

Stephen Alexander, Head of Planning informed the Committee that the applicant had been working hard with officers to make a difficult application work. The issues regarding the s106 Agreement were minor points. No objections or issues of concern had been raised regarding the application and it was a relatively straightforward matter.  On that basis he respectfully asked that the Committee not delay determination of the application.

 

Resolved:

          That the application be deferred to the next meeting pending a site visit.
