On 4 March 2015
Planning Committee considered an application (14/1252/FUL) for the change of
the existing building to a Class D1 dance school/studio including limited
alterations to the external envelope of the building. The Committee resolved to
approve the application subject to conditions and completion of a S106
agreement for ECATP contribution (£31,831).
As no highway
project was identified at the stage of the application, the Officer’s report
sought Committee’s approval to secure the contribution to an identified
project.
On the basis the
Council can no longer pool contributions from developments without having
identified a local project to secure it against, the (March) Officer’s report
sought approval for the following:
The County Highways Authority (CHA) has identified the “Project 3
‘Remodelling St Matthew's Street Junction’” as the project to secure the ECATP
contribution (£31,831) through a S106 agreement.
The October Committee were recommended to agree:
i.
The project that the County
Highway Authority has identified above for the ECATP contribution to be spend
on and for the contribution to be paid prior to occupation.
ii.
To insert a clause in the agreement to require the
applicant or title in successor to confirm in writing to the Council once work
has been completed and when the building is occupied.
The Committee:
Unanimously
resolved to accept the officer recommendations.
