The Committee received an
application for full planning permission.
The application sought approval for demolition of No.149 Newmarket Road
and existing garage structures, the erection of new buildings producing a total
of 11 residential units, the formation of a cafe space (use class A3) on the
ground floor of Logic House, brick and tile tinting to Logic House and
associated infrastructure and works.
At the 29 August meeting of Planning Committee, Members resolved they were
minded to refuse the application, a decision on whether to approve or refuse
the application was subsequently deferred under the Adjourned Decision
Protocol.
Under the Council’s agreed Adjourned Decisions Protocol this application
has been brought back to Committee to allow further discussion of reasons for
refusal.
A decision could no longer be issued so agreement on the basis for the
Statement of Case was required.
The Committee received a representation in objection to the application
from the Appointed Person on the Parish Church Council of Christ Church.
The representation covered the following issues:
i.
Referred to his comments made at
29 August 2018 Planning Committee.
ii.
The Church and Logic House site
developer were now having fruitful discussions on how to develop the site as a
whole. (Note: Applications for 143-147
Newmarket Road and 149 Newmarket Road and Abbey Church impacted on each other.)
The Committee:
Resolved (by 9 votes to 0) to accept reasons
for refusal in line with the Officer recommendation. A decision cannot be
issued as an appeal against non-determination has been lodged. The accepted
reasons for refusal will form the basis of the Council’s statement of case.
