  • Meeting of Area East Committee, Wednesday 13th August 2014 10.00 am (Item 52.)

Minutes:

On behalf of his colleague the Planning Officer presented the report as detailed in full in the agenda. With the aid of a power point presentation he showed the site, and proposed plans.  He confirmed that the officer’s recommendation was to approve the application.

Mrs J Montgomery the Agent addressed the committee and urged members to approve the application as per the officer’s recommendation.

Ward Member Cllr Mike Lewis also agreed with the recommendation, but he suggested that Condition 04 should include wording in order to remedy the foul smell from foul and surface water drainage in the area.

The Area Lead West explained that the suggested additional wording to condition 04 could not be included but could be included in an informative note.

It was proposed and seconded to approve the application as per the officer’s recommendation plus an informative regarding the foul smell.

On being put to the vote the motion was carried unanimously in favour.

RESOLVED: That Planning Application 14/02481/OUT be approved as per the officer recommendation.

Sparkford by reason of its size and provision of services and facilities is considered a sustainable location in principle for appropriate development. The erection of a dwelling on this site, immediately adjacent to the settlement limit would respect the character of the locality with no demonstrable harm to residential amenity or highway safety. As such the proposal complies with policies ST2, ST6 and ST5 of the South Somerset Local Plan (Adopted April 2006) and the aims and objectives of the NPPF.

SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING:

 

01.       The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with the block and location plans 14110-2 received 04 June 2014.

                        Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.

 

02.       Details of the access, appearance, landscaping, layout and scale (herein after called the "reserved matters") shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority before any development begins and the development shall be carried out as approved.

                                    Reason: As required by Section 92(2) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

 

03.       Application for approval of the reserved matters shall be made to the Local Planning Authority before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission and the development shall begin no later than 3 years from the date of this permission or not later than 2 years from the approval of the last "reserved matters" to be approved.

                        Reason: As required by Section 92(2) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

04.       Before the development hereby permitted is commenced, foul and surface water drainage details to serve the development, shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority and such approved drainage details shall be completed and become fully operational before the development hereby permitted is first brought into use.  Following its installation such approved scheme shall be permanently retained and maintained thereafter.

                        Reason: In the interests of local amenities in accordance with policies ST5 and ST6 of the South Somerset Local Plan.

Informative Note regarding the foul smell of the drainage.
