Description

Demolition of the existing buildings and erection of part 3 storey, part 4 storey building comprising 21 residential flats with associated car and cycle parking and refuse storage.

Decision

The Committee noted a presentation from the Principal Planning Officer.

The following points were raised by the Committee:

a)            Access Road: a document shown at Committee indicated that the Applicant is the owner of the access road, whereas the owner of the access road has been noted in the report as being the Borough Council.  Clarity on the ownership of the access road will need to be obtained in order to enable the Planning Committee to take a decision with full information on this point.

Councillor Neil Dallen proposed a deferral.  This was seconded by Councillor Clive Smitheram.  The reason for deferral was to allow officers to obtain clarity on the ownership of the access road as well as the legal status of rights of way.

Following consideration, the Committee resolved with 11 Members voting for deferral, and the Chair not voting that:

The Application be DEFERRED to the next meeting.
