Agenda item

To consider the above application.

(During consideration of the application Councillor J Wray arrived to the meeting).

Consideration was given to the above application.

It was noted that at the top ofpage 31 of the officer report it stated that a commuted payment was required for the construction of a pedestrian/cycle link at the rear of the Cheshire Cheese Public House. This was incorrect. The S106 agreement required the owner to form this length of pedestrian / cycle route and no commuted payment was to be made for this route. Other off site improvements and works required commuted payments to be made.

(Mr Wild, a representative of Basford East Basford West Action Group, Mr Tittensor, an objector and Mr Rolinson, the agent for the applicant attended the meeting and spoke in respect of the application.
