Issue - meetings

To consider application UTT/21/0009/DFO.

The Senior Planning Officer presented a reserved matters application for the erection of up to 9 dwellings for the consideration of layout, appearance and landscaping following on from the grant of outline planning permission by the Council in 2019. The principle of residential development at this site location has therefore been accepted.

The application was recommended for approval with conditions.

In response to questions from Members, the Senior Planning Officer confirmed that the parking provided was compliant with Essex County Council and Uttlesford’s parking standards.  He said that Highway informatives would be imposed, including one requiring that there shall be no discharge of surface water onto the highway.   He confirmed that there was a condition requiring electrical vehicle charging points to be included.

In response to a question from Councillor Emanuel, the Development Manager said that it was not possible to have a condition preventing parking on the road; this would only be possible through a Road Traffic Order providing for a yellow line. 

Councillor LeCount proposed that the application be approved. This was seconded by Councillor Pavitt.

RESOLVED to approve the application with conditions.

P McKeown (agent) spoke in support of the application.

The meeting was adjourned at 11:50am and reconvened at 1:00pm
