Meeting: 12/03/2024 - Planning Committee (Item 90)
PDF 198 KBNew vehicular access.
Minutes:
Councillor McWilliams stated for the record that she had no relation to the applicants, however the application site was in her Ward.
Members heard that the proposal sought planning permission for a new vehicular access to the site that would measure a maximum of 4.8m in width.
It was reported that the proposal was a minor improvement to the site and was a small-scale change and would match other similar development within the surrounding area. The proposal was deemed by Officers to be of an acceptable size, scale and appearance with no significant adverse effects on the visual or other amenities of the area including neighbouring sites.
The Committee had before it the published Officer report 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 Head of Planning and Building Control (JPG) in respect of the application.
There were no updates circulated to Members in relation to this application.
There were no public speakers on this Application.

Matters raised by Members of the Committee:- |
Officer’s response thereto:- |
|
This is a Tendring District Council application, isn’t it? |
Yes, that is correct. My apologies for not mentioning that at the beginning. It is a Council owned property and that is why it is in front of Members. |
|
So, it is only before Members for that reason, for being TDC property? |
Yes, under TDC’s constitution, any development on land that is owned by the Council comes before this Committee. |
It was moved by Councillor M Cossens, seconded by Councillor Smith and unanimously:-
RESOLVEDthat:-
1) the Head of Planning and Building Control be authorised to grant planning permission subject to the conditions as stated at paragraph 8.2, or varied as is necessary to ensure the wording is enforceable, precise, and reasonable in all other respects, including appropriate updates, so long as the principle of the conditions as referenced is retained; and
2) the sending to the applicant of any informative notes as may be deemed necessary.
