Agenda item

Further details relating to the application were included in the Supplementary Report, which included amended plans.

 

The Planning Manager (Development Control) presented the report which gave details of the application and highlighted the location and features of the site and key issues.

 

This application had previously been considered by the Planning Committee in September 2019.  The item had been brought back to the Planning Committee for re-consideration in the light of material amendments to the previously agreed scheme.

 

The agent, Mr Paul Butler, on behalf of the applicant attended the meeting remotely and spoke in support of the application.

 

Committee considered the application having regard to the Bolsover District Local Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

The main issues considered in the determination of this application were:

·         the principle of the development;

·         layout and design;

·         landscape and ecology;

·         highway safety;

·         flood risk and drainage;

·         noise.

 

The principle of development on this site had already been established through the strategic Local Plan allocation and the previous grant of outline planning permission.

 

It was moved by Councillor Duncan McGregor and seconded by Councillor Deborah Watson that the application be approved in line with the officer recommendation as set out in the report and supplementary papers.

 

Councillor Nick Clarke moved an amendment to the Motion which was seconded by Councillor Anne Clarke to defer the application until all the information had been received by officers and could be made available to the Planning Committee.  On being put to the vote the amendment was lost.
