Minutes:
DM.62/18 The Committee considered the details of the planning applications prepared by the Planning Case Officers as presented in the agenda papers, and considered also the comments of Town and Parish Councils together with other representations received, which were listed within the presented agenda reports, and RESOLVED that:
a) 3628/17/FUL Oak Tree Field at SX 778 588, Tristford Road, Harberton Parish: Harberton Erection of 12 dwellings, workshop/office, associated landscaping and site development works
Case Officer Update: Devon County Council as Lead Local Flood Authority had submitted an objection, but this had now been withdrawn subject to the inclusion of three pre-commencement conditions
Speakers included: Objector – Mr Stanley Oldfield: Supporter – Mr Nick Williams: Parish Council – Cllr Ginny Davison; Ward Member – Cllr Tucker
Recommendation: Refusal
During debate, a number of Members commented on the need for housing schemes of this type, and the importance of community led schemes being brought forward. Whilst the comments of the Highways Officer were accepted, the majority of Members had attended the site inspection and seen the junction for themselves, Members overriding view was that the small number of additional vehicle movements arising from the development would not result in an adverse impact on Highways safety. In addition, Members were aware that any development within the village would have a similar impact on highways matters. In reaching their decision, Members took account of the support of the parish council. Finally, Members took the view that the contribution requested by Devon County Council towards education provision should be significantly reduced or removed entirely, as the contribution should not be applied to affordable homes.
Committee Decision: Delegate to Head of Development Management Practice (HoP), in conjunction with Chairman to conditionally grant planning permission, subject to a Section 106 legal obligation.
However, in the event that the Section 106 legal Agreement remains unsigned six months after this resolution, that the application is reviewed by the HoP, in consultation with the Chairman of the Committee, and if no progress is being made delegated authority is given to the HoP to refuse the application in the absence of an agreed S106 Agreement.
Reasons:
1. The benefits of the scheme outweigh the highways objection and it is not considered such an inacceptable impact on highway safety. 2. Harberton has been identified as a Sustainable Village within the JLP with an indicative figure of 20 dwellings, and any development in and around the village will have some impact on the highway.
b) 3262/18/FUL Lyndale, Onslow Road, Salcombe Parish: Salcombe
Proposed residential development of two detached dwellings on vacant land. Revised scheme submission of refused application for three dwellings ref 1240/16/FUL
Case Officer Update: An additional condition would be added for a Construction Management Plan
Speakers included: Objector – Mr Robert Smith: Supporter – Mr Nigel Keen: Town Council – Cllr Mike Fice; Ward Members – Cllr Wright (statement read) and Cllr Pearce
Recommendation: Conditional Approval
