Agenda item

16 no. apartments

The Committee considered a report of the Principal Planning Officer regarding an application for 16 no. apartments at Skippers Meadow, Ushaw Moor (for copy see file of Minutes).

The Principal Planning Officer gave a detailed presentation on the application which included photographs of the site.

Councillor J Wilkinson, local Member welcomed the proposals. This was a sustainable development providing high quality affordable accommodation by a social landlord that would be adapted for wheelchair users.  It was also pleasing that the scheme was to be funded by the Homes and Communities Agency.

Resolved:

That the application be approved subject to the conditions outlined in the report and to the entering into of a Section 106 Agreement to secure the provision of affordable housing in perpetuity.
