RECOMMENDATION:  Approval subject to conditions

WARD:  Enfield Highway

Minutes:

NOTED

 

1.    The introduction by the Chair, noting that the recent Members’ site visit had been very useful and flagged up some significant issues, particularly in respect of the raised pitch and relative levels.

2.    An amendment to the officers’ recommendation: that consideration of the application should be deferred in order to allow additional work to be undertaken. A briefing note had been circulated to councillors this afternoon.

3.    Concerns raised by Councillor Savva that a decision had previously been deferred and the committee should not frustrate the applicant.

4.    Members’ debate and questions responded to by officers.

5.    The Chair’s suggestion that if the applicant wished to make representations about the revised recommendation there would be an opportunity to address the Planning Committee at their next meeting on 27 July 2016.

6.    The officers’ amended recommendation was supported by a majority of the committee: 5 votes for, 1 vote against, and 3 abstentions.

 

AGREED that consideration of the planning application be deferred in order to allow further discussion to take place on certain key aspects of the development which should be fully considered at the planning application stage rather than for those aspects to be the subject of conditions, considered at a later stage, as had originally been proposed.
