Issue - meetings

Demolition of existing buildings and erection of a six-storey building and a part-two-, part-three-, part-four-, part-five-storey building, containing a total of twenty-seven residential units (nine one-bedroom units, eleven two-bedroom units, two three-bedroom units and five four-bedroom units), together with associated access and landscaping works.

POST-SUBMISSION REVISIONS: Rear block set back further to the west to allow wider external corridor; revisions to room sizes; increase in carbon-dioxide-emissions reduction from ten per cent to twenty per cent.

13.1  The Planning Officer introduced the report, as set out in the agenda. It was explained that this proposal had been approved by the Sub-Committee on 6 May 2009.  However, although the report referred to the development as being car-free, a Section 106 head of terms to that effect had been mistakenly omitted from both Recommendation B and the addendum.  Accordingly, the car-free head of terms was now listed within the report and the proposed development was unchanged from the application previously approved in May 2009.

13.2  There being no questions from Members, the Chair moved to the vote.
