Minutes:
Attention was drawn to the
late observations form.
a) The
Development Control Officer explained that the outline application had been
approved with layout, scale, appearance and landscaping matters reserved, and
the application in question was for assessing those matters along with drainage
matters and phased development which were subject to conditions 7 and 10 on the
outline permission. It was reiterated that the principle
of the proposal and the matters relating to the access had already been
permitted under the outline application.
It was reported that the
plans submitted as part of the application in question confirmed the access in
accordance with the outline permission that had been granted. The layout of the
site indicated a proposal to provide an estate road off the forked access; together with erecting six detached dwellings on the
left-hand side of the estate road and a terrace of three affordable dwellings
on the right-hand side. This part of the development contained 6 four-bedroom open market dwellings, and 3 three-bedroom
affordable dwellings. It was noted that the outline application had been
subject to a 106 agreement which secured the
affordable element, and payments for open spaces and education. The outline
permission specified a particular housing mix (6 four-bedroom open market
houses, and 3 three-bedroom affordable dwellings), and these elements had
already received permission through the outline application.
Consequently, the only matters to be
assessed in this application were design, layout, scale and landscaping.
It was reported that the layout of the proposal before
the Committee was in keeping with what had been proposed at the time of the outline
application, and the proposed site plan confirmed that the development was
acceptable in terms of the impact on the rest of the development's housing.
Reference was made to observations that had been
received from local residents, the Local Member as well as the Community
Council regarding current drainage matters on the site that impacted
nearby housing. It was
noted that officers from the Drainage Unit were aware of the situation
and had visited the site. In addition, the surface water
disposal system would need to be designed to conform to Sustainable
Drainage System (SuDS) requirements.
