[To consider the application]

Minutes:

The Committee considered a report regarding application 17/00915/FUL, residential development consisting of the erection of 29 new dwellings in total.

 

Ms Ann Rowlands addressed the Committee and spoke in opposition to the application.

 

Councillors were still concerned that the previous reasons for refusal had not been addressed and they were particularly concerned about overdevelopment and traffic congestion on Church Road.

 

Tim Philpot, Professional Lead – Transport Strategy advised the Committee that officers had looked into trip generations based on peak hours and those results had indicated that the number of trips would not cause any significant harm to the highway.

 

Resolved:

That planning permission be refused for the following reasons:

  • Overdevelopment of the site
  • Poor impact on neighbouring amenity

Traffic congestion
