Minutes:

The Committee considered a report of the Senior Planning Officer regarding the proposed erection of 14 two bedroom dwellings, including parking and associated landscaping (for copy see file of Minutes).

 

The Senior Planning Officer provided a detailed presentation including photographs of the site and plans of the proposed layout.

 

Councillor Hopgood asked whether tree protection orders would be served prior to development. In response the Senior Planning Officer advised that the trees were not of good enough quality to protect them via a TPO however care would be taken to protect them from damage during the course of development.

 

Councillor Hopgood further asked how many parking bays would be provided. The Senior Planning Officer advised that 1 space would be provided per dwelling plus a third of space per dwelling for visitor parking. He further advised that the level of parking proposed met highway standards. In addition the main road adjacent to the development was adequate enough for additional cars to park safely.

Councillor Shield SECONDED the proposal.

 

Resolved: That the application be approved subject to the conditions listed in the report and the completion of a 106 agreement.
