Decision:

The matter having been debated and having regard to the main material

planning policies and requirements,

 

it was MOVED by Councillor J Brook and SECONDED by Councillor L Hellyer

and

 

RESOLVED that, subject to the applicant entering into a deed of variation to

apply the terms of the previous legal agreement to the new permission,

planning permission be granted subject to the conditions set out in Appendix 1

of the Report (with variations to the conditions of the previous planning

permission highlighted) (with any subsequent minor material changes to the

terms of the agreement being agreed in consultation with the Chair and Local

County Councillor).

 

(N.B. In accordance with Standing Order 32(4) Councillors A Connett, D Cox,

Minutes:

(Suzi Coyne (Agent for the applicant) attended under the Public Participation Scheme and spoke in support of the application).

 

The Committee considered the Report of the Chief Planner (CET/22/42) on 

proposed variations to the conditions concerning the amendments to the phasing of an existing planning permission for landfill/land raise and the consequent alterations to the previously approved drawings.  

 

The Council’s Legal Adviser for this application reported on the legal considerations and the scope of the application in regard to use of Section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 in the determination of this application. Members were advised that the use of Section 73 was the appropriate mechanism to deal with the proposed changes to the development and that the application before members was not a new planning application, but the effect of approval was the grant of a new permission.

 

The Chief Planner’s Report gave a reasoned assessment of the proposal, referring to all relevant policies and summarising the comments and views of interested parties received prior to the meeting. The Chief Planner also reported additional representations from Whitestone Parish Council and Dr G Fielding in objection and relating to consultation arrangements.

 

Member discussions and questions to the Officers (and which included points arising from the issues raised by the Speaker) related to the legal considerations and scope of the application; the type of material to be disposed, engineering fill, water management, ecology and biodiversity; landscape and visual impact; and highway and track access.

 

The matter having been debated and having regard to the main material planning policies and requirements,

 

it was MOVED by Councillor J Brook and SECONDED by Councillor L Hellyer  and

 

RESOLVED that, subject to the applicant entering into a deed of variation to apply the terms of the previous legal agreement to the new permission, planning permission be granted subject to the conditions set out in Appendix 1 of the Report (with variations to the conditions of the previous planning permission highlighted) (with any subsequent minor material changes to the terms of the agreement being agreed in consultation with the Chair and Local County Councillor).
