To consider application UTT/19/1508/FUL.

Minutes:

The Senior Planning Officer presented a proposal for the erection of 22 custom/self-build dwellings with associated parking provision, new service roads to include new access formed off St Edmunds Lane, and associated drainage works. This represented a revised design scheme to the extant 22 self-build dwelling scheme previously approved by the Council on 11 May 2018. The Planning Officer explained that there would be a choice of three types of self-build for each plot.

 

The application was recommended for approval with conditions with S106.

 

Members discussed whether the S106 Agreement could be brought back to the Committee, protection of the surrounding hedge, access arrangements, the possibility of a hammerhead at the end of the service road and supervisory arrangements.

 

Officers confirmed that a trilateral S106 Agreement (including UDC & ECC) would be negotiated. The Development Manager stated that the proposed S106 Agreement could be brought back to the Committee and that further conditions could be added.

 

Councillor Fairhurst proposed the motion to approve in principle the application, with additional changes to the conditions and subject to the S106 Agreement being brought back to the Committee.

 

Councillor Freeman seconded the motion.

 

RESOLVED to approve the application, subject to a S106 agreement being entered into between the Council and the applicant relating to commuted sum payments, supervision of the delivery, the protection of the hedge and the negotiated terms of any agreed draft S106 being reported back to Members for their further consideration. It should also be subject to a revised drawing being submitted to, and approved by the LPA, showing the formation of a hammerhead at the end of the proposed service road whereby this additional site requirement is to be conditioned as an additional condition on any planning permission granted.

 

S Bampton spoke on the application.

 

The Committee adjourned at 15.22 and reconvened at 15.30.
