Decisions:
The Cabinet had before it a * report of the Head of Planning, Economy and Regeneration updating Members on the outcome of the public consultation regarding the proposal to amend the adopted Masterplan Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) by removing housing land parcels on the southern side of West Manley Lane (within Area A) and seeking approval to revise the adopted Masterplan SPD accordingly.
The Cabinet Member for Planning and Economic Regeneration outlined the contents of the report explaining the background to the proposal before the meeting today. He highlighted the approval of the Masterplan in April 2014 which had been outlined in the Allocations and Infrastructure Development Plan Document (AIDPD), Policy AL/TIV7 and included residential and employment areas of the Eastern Urban extension within the settlement limit of Tiverton. The southern part of the area followed the line of West Manley Lane before extending south towards the former railway line, the principle of development was established within the allocated site. Within the site was a small cluster of low density housing on land parcels south of West Manley Lane with the potential of providing 15 units. Outline planning permission was approved in June 2017 for 700 dwellings on Chettiscombe Trust land and the land parcels south of West Manley Lane initially formed part of the red line area of the application, this was subsequently amended at the request of the Planning Committee to remove it from the red line boundary. Although it was removed from the planning permission, the decision did not amend the masterplan and the Cabinet at its meeting in January 2018 resolved to amend the masterplan to remove the land parcels south of West Manley Lane and that public consultation take place on the revision.
He informed the meeting of the outcome of the consultation process which generally supported the amendment to the masterplan.
Consideration was given to: the decision of the Planning Committee and the general support for the amendment to the masterplan.
RESOLVED that the results of the public consultation be NOTED; and
RECOMMENDED to Council:
i) That the Tiverton Eastern Urban Extension Masterplan Supplementary Planning Document be amended to encompass the proposed changes as set out in Appendix B and adopted; and
ii) That the April 2014 Tiverton Eastern Urban Extension Masterplan Supplementary Planning Document be revoked.
(Proposed by Cllr R J Chesterton and seconded by Cllr C R Slade)
