Note: Councillor G Merry left the meeting during consideration of this item and Councillor A Kolker took the Chair.
The Committee considered a report regarding application 11/4002C, which had been approved by the Southern Planning Committee on 6 June 2012.
The developer was seeking to amend the wording of the resolution in respect of the Section 106 Agreement, to make provision for properties for ‘affordable rent’ within the scheme as an alternative to ‘social rent’.
Concern was expressed regarding this application for a change of tenure from social rent to affordable rent.
RESOLVED – That in respect of application 11/4002C the first bullet point of the previous resolution (relating to the provision of affordable housing) be amended to read:
‘Provision of 23% affordable housing (19 no. units comprising of 12no. Two bedroom apartments, 4no. three bedroom houses and 3no. two bedroom) split on the basis of 63% affordable rent (12 units) and 37% intermediate tenure (7 units) as per requirements of the Interim Planning Statement’.
