Reason for Referral to the Committee / Council

Major Application

This application is presented before Members of District Planning Committee as it is of strategic and corporate merit and because there is a Planning Performance Agreement in place.

 

It was noted from the Members’ Update that there was an amendment to paragraph 3.1.15 of the report, a further letter of objection had been received and a revision to condition 2 was detailed.

 

Following her presentation of the application, the Officer advised that two further letters of representation had been received and she highlighted a suggested amendment to condition 10 and additional condition 19 in relation to the antenna / satellite dishes on the independent living units.

 

The Chairman advised Members that under the Council’s public participation scheme two submissions had been received, one from an objector, Mr Gilmour and another from the agent, Mr Rowe.  In line with the public participation scheme he had reviewed the submissions and in accordance with the scheme proceeded to read out the two submissions received.  The Chairman then moved the Officers’ recommendation of approval subject to the conditions detailed within the report, Members’ Update and Officers’ presentation.  This was duly seconded.

 

At this point Councillor C Morris raised a point of order relating to a slide being shown during the reading of the public submissions.  The Chairman advised that he had made the decision to show the slide and that this was in accordance with Procedure Rule 23.

 

Councillor W Stamp, a Ward Member, expressed concern at the design of the proposed development.  She referred to attending a pre-application meeting with other Members and asked that it be Minuted how the applicant had approached her after this meeting and told her “I am not your enemy”.  In response to a question, the Lead Specialist Place also advised that the marketing strategy was something required under the Section 106 Agreement and therefore not for consideration with this application.
