Agenda item

It was noted that Members had visited the site on the previous day.

In response to Members’ queries the Planning officer stated that since the amendment to the S106 agreement on the existing dwellings on the site 3 had been sold and several enquiries had been received regarding the remaining dwellings.

Members queried the restriction on permitted development so it was agreed to amend condition 3 of the recommendation by deleting reference to ancillary buildings, walls and satellite dishes and amend the reference to fences by adding ‘in front garden only’.

Condition 4 was also amended to state ‘Maintain parking spaces and use for parking vehicles only’.  Condition 8 was then amended to include screening to parking spaces at the rear and condition 7 was amended to include metre boxes.
