To consider the above planning application.
Minutes:
Note: Councillor P Mason (Ward Councillor) and Mrs K Jarvis (objector) attended the meeting and addressed the Committee on this matter.
The Committee considered a report regarding the above planning application and an oral report of the site inspection.
The Interim Business Lead Development Management (South) clarified that, under ‘Reason for Referral’, the report should refer to the Southern Planning Committee rather than the Strategic Planning Board.
The Principal Development Officer, Highway Development Control, gave an oral response to a series of points which had been raised by Mrs Jarvis.
RESOLVED – That the application be REFUSED for the following reason:
The proposed design and layout is substandard and has missed the opportunities to deliver high quality development on a site with great potential and it therefore fails to satisfy the requirements of PPS1, PPS3, By Design, Manual For Streets along with local plan policies GR1, GR2 and GR3 which seek to deliver high quality design and to avoid development which fails to improve the character and quality of an area and the way it functions.
