Issue - meetings

To consider the contribution to the Connect 2 cycleway, to be secured under a Section 106 Agreement in relation to the planning application for the student hub at Reaseheath College.

The Committee considered a report regarding the above planning application, which had been considered by the Development Control Committee of the former Crewe and Nantwich Borough Council on 4 December 2008.  The application had been approved subject to the applicant signing a Section 106 agreement and subject to conditions.  Members had asked that, in the event that no agreement on the amount of the contribution had been reached by 28 February 2009, the matter be referred back to the Development Control Committee for further consideration.

At a meeting of the Development Control Committee on 5 March 2009, it was verbally reported that the sum of £30,000 had been secured, but that this had not been confirmed in writing.  Written confirmation of this agreement had been received in writing on 4 March 2009, but this was not recorded in the minutes of the meeting.

RESOLVED

(a) That the commuted payment of £30,000 as a contribution towards the provision of the Connect2 cycleway (or other similar improvements between Crewe and Nantwich), as required by the Section 106 agreement referred to in the decision made by the former Crewe and Nantwich Borough Council Development Control Committee on 4 December 2008, be approved.

(b) That there be no necessity for the Committee to consider any further issues in relation to the Section 106 Agreement for Reaseheath College, Nantwich for Planning Application P08/1126.
