Decision Maker: Planning
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
The Committee
received an application for full planning permission.
The application
sought approval for the relocation of the existing liquid nitrogen (LN2) tank, Denios unit and cycle parking facilities, and scheme of
archaeological investigative works.
The Principal Planner referred to the amendment sheet that listed a
change to the original recommendation. The revised recommendation was for
approval, previously it was for refusal.
The Principal Planner tabled three documents:
i.
A memorandum from the Environmental Health Team
setting out a consultation response.
ii.
A copy of the Objector’s speaking notes, which the
Principal Planner had been asked to circulate.
iii.
An addendum to the planning amendment sheet setting
out revisions to Conditions 6, 7 and 11; plus two new/additional Conditions 15
and 16.
The Committee received a representation in objection to the application
from a local resident.
The representation covered the following specific concerns:
i.
The proposed location of the
storage tank. Suggested it should be located on the other side of the present
car park.
ii.
The new storage tank would
displace bikes from their current location and so subject residents to noise
nuisance.
iii.
Safety.
iv.
The
opportunity to amend the unattractive site design had been lost as the concerns
raised in Newtown Conservation Area Appraisal (published 2012) had not been
addressed.
The Applicant’s Representative addressed the Committee in support of the
application.
The Committee:
Unanimously resolved (by 7 votes to 0) to grant the application
for planning permission in accordance with the officer recommendation, for the
reasons set out on the amendment sheet, and subject to the conditions
recommended by the officers on the amendment sheet (as amended by the
additional sheet tabled at Committee).
