Decisions:
The Head of City Development submitted a report (previously circulated, now appended) detailing an application for the erection of a 3 storey building to accommodate 74 student rooms plus warden's accommodation as well as the provision of cycle and bin storage facilities and landscaping.
The Planning Case Officer advised of one late comment received from the local Member of Parliament highlighting concerns about certain aspects of the scheme. He said that the objections rasied did not highlight any new issues and the recommendation to approve the application stood.
In accordance with the criteria for public speaking Amanda Whiting, a neighbouring resident, spoke in objection to the application and Nick Lyzba, the applicant’s agent, spoke in support.
Resolved to support the development in principle but defer the application in order to complete an accompanying legal agreement and delegate Officers the issuing of planning permission subject to the following conditions:-
