Agenda item

The Head of Planning introduced the item which had previously been submitted in February 2022 when Members had visited the site.  Issues regarding the removal of spoil from the site and the impact on the neighbours had been raised at that meeting and Officers had requested a more detailed plan. Following discussions with the applicant a revised application had been received with an improved design and clearer information about the disposal of spoil and waste from the site.  Additional conditions were proposed to facilitate this and respond to design concerns including returning altered openings in the existing barn to their original size.

Members also requested that condition 3 stated that as much reclaimed stone would be used in the building and that further conditions be added added to clarify the drainage on the plan for the site, details of location of ground source heat pump, rainwater goods, details of hard and soft landscape  and external lighting.

A motion to approve the application in line with Officer Recommendation with additional and strengthened conditions was moved, seconded, put to the vote and carried.
