Members recalled that this reserved matters application had been considered by the Committee on 29 March 2017 when it had been resolved that consideration of the application be deferred to enable negotiations to take place with the applicant for:

1.     Plots 17, 18 and 19 to have larger dwellings and gardens; and

2.     Larger green gap for views through woodland.

Members were informed that Officers had discussed those matters with the applicant and revised plans had now been submitted.

The Committee had before it the published Officer report, with all relevant updates highlighted by the Officer in bold text, containing the key planning issues, relevant planning policies, planning history, any response from consultees, written representations received and a recommendation of approval.

At the meeting, an oral presentation was made by the Council’s Planning Manager (GG) in respect of the application.
