The Committee received a presentation on the application from the Principal Planning Officer.

Description:

Construction of a three to five-storey building plus basement for use as a care home (Use Class C2) with up to 81 bedrooms and associated communal spaces and services, together with associated car and cycle parking, refuse storage and ancillary works.

Officer Recommendation:

Approval, subject to conditions, informatives, and s106 legal agreement.

Decision:

Following consideration, Councillor Phil Neale proposed that an informative be added to address the timings of staff shift swap-overs and any actions the applicant could take in order to mitigate the impact on the local area in terms of the traffic generated by the staff coming to and leaving the site.

The proposal did not receive a seconder and consequently the motion was lost.

Following further consideration, the Acting Chair put the Officer recommendation to the vote. The Committee resolved (5 in Favour, 3 Against, and the Acting Chair not voting):
