P14-00197PLA - 109. STATION ROAD, LONDON, N11 1QH RECOMMENDATION: Approval subject to S106 Agreement and conditions WARD: Southgate Green Minutes: NOTED
1. Introduction by the Planning Decisions Manager. 2. The response by the Group Leader – Transport Planning & Policy to concerns raised by members regarding the impact of local parking by the new development. 3. The response of the Planning Decisions Manager to issues raised. 4. Additional items reported: a. Para 6.3.32 – Traffic & Transportation had confirmed that the proposed loading bay could be used for disabled parking outside the allocated loading times. They also advised that single yellow lines could be used by blue badge holders. Whilst it was always preferable to secure dedicated disabled car parking, it is not possible for the reasons set out in the report to provide such parking in this instance. It is also considered that any disabled occupants would buy into the development in the knowledge of the parking arrangement that would exist. b. Para 6.5.7 - TfL had confirmed that there was no objection in principle to relocating the bus cage. This matter would be secured through the Section 106. c. Para 6.7.6 – The level of affordable housing set out in the report (para 6.7.4) was the minimum level of provision that would be secured. Discussions are on-going with the applicant to secure additional provision and as today’s date the provision had increased to 18 affordable inits – 7 rent and 11 shared ownership. However, this needs to be tested against the Section 106 contributions that were being sought. Members are being asked to give officers delegated authority to continue discussions on this issue, to secure no less than the level of provision set out in the report, and also the other issues identified at para 6.8.1 through a Section 106 Agreement. d. Conditions 6,8,9 and 13 as set out in the report were not in fact required as they are either covered by other conditions or the obligations to be secured through the Section 106 Agreement. 5. Following a debate, a vote was taken and members resolved to accept the officers’ recommendation by 6 votes, 1 against and 2 absentions.
AGREED that, subject to the completion of a Section 106 Agreement to secure the obligations as set out in the report, the Head of Development Management/the Planning Decisions Manager be authorised to grant planning permission subject to conditions set out in the report. |
