Minutes: The Committee considered the applications in the *Plans List.
Note: *List previously circulated and attached to the minutes.
a) Application 21/00072/MARM – (reserved matters for the erection of up to 105 dwellings, associated landscaping, public open space and allotments together with vehicle and pedestrian access from Siskin Chase and pedestrian access from Colebrooke Lane, following outline approval 19/01839/MOUT – land at NGR 301216 106714 (West of Siskin Chase) Colebrooke Lane, Cullompton)
The Area Team Leader outlined the contents of the report informing the meeting of the history of the site, the outline planning permission which had been granted in September 2020 and explained that the current reserved matters application dealt with layout, appearance, landscape and scale and that the access to the development had been considered as part of the previous outline application.
She provided a presentation which highlighted: the site layout, the main vehicular access via Siskin Chase, the construction access via Colebrooke Lane (both agreed at outline), the proposed street scene, the landscaping layout which was predominately to the south of the site; the affordable housing layout and the position of the accessible and adaptable homes; the parking strategy, soft landscaping and the play equipment set up, the allotments proposals and photographs from various aspects leading to the site.
Consideration was given to questions from the committee with regard to:
· The maintenance of the open space and who would be responsible for the allotments, where was the cycle way and whether the location of the bird boxes could be identified. · Concerns with regard to surface water run off · The tree planting scheme, the location of the affordable housing, whether the allotments would be bunded and the lighting to the pedestrian access · Housing standards associated with the ‘Ashenford’ – 2 bed properties and the views of Public Health and that this would be a Building Control matter. · Play space for older children · The pinch point in Siskin Chase which had already been considered at outline.
Further consideration was then given to:
· The views of the objector with regard to the lack of cycle paths within the development, the high car use encouraged on the site by way of the additional parking spaces which was thought to be excessive, the excessive parking at the allotments and concerns with regard to flooding on the pedestrian path to the site. · The views of the agent with regard to the access consented at the outline stage, what was being considered as part of the reserved matters application, the high quality design of the development with ample open space and parking, the involvement of the Design Review Panel, the affordable housing on the site, the electric charging points for every dwelling, the adaptable and accessible homes, the contributions through the S106 agreement and the dialogue that had taken place with the Town Council.
It was therefore RESOLVED that: planning permission be granted subject to conditions, as recommended by the Head of Planning, Economy and Regeneration.
