Agenda and minutes

Apologies were received from Councillors Fear, Heesom and Proctor.

Councillor Ken Owen declared an interest in Tree Preservation Order 186.  8 Barford Road. 

To consider the minutes of the previous meeting(s).

Resolved:                 That the minutes of the meeting held on 6 December, 2017 be agreed as a correct record.

Resolved:     That the application be refused for the following reasons:

(i)            The development would have an urbanising effect on the

open countryside and would have a significant adverse impact on the character and appearance of the area.

(ii)           The adverse impacts of the development, namely the

harm to the character and appearance of the countryside and the high level of the use of the private car, significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of the development. The proposal therefore represents an unsustainable development that is contrary to the guidance of the National Planning Policy Framework (2012).

(iii)         In the absence of a secured planning obligation and

having regard to the likely additional pupils arising from a development of this scale and the capacity of existing educational provision in the area, the development fails to make an appropriate contribution towards education provision.

(iv)         In the absence of a secured planning obligation the

development fails to make an appropriate contribution towards the provision of affordable housing which is required to provide a balanced and well-functioning housing market.

(v)           In the absence of a secured planning obligation the

development fails to make appropriate contributions towards travel plan monitoring and preparation which is required to provide a sustainable development.

(vi)         In the absence of a secured planning obligation the development fails to secure the long term maintenance and management of the required public open space upon the site.

Resolved:     That the developer be advised that the Council, as the Local Planning Authority is willing to agree to variations to the Unilateral Undertaking  to extend protection from liability to future mortgagees.

Resolved:     That the City Council be informed that the Borough Council has

no objections to the proposed development subject to the City Council receiving no objections from the Highway Authority and/or Highways England in respect of any unacceptable impact the developments may have on the A53/A500 junction at Basford Bank.
