Agenda item

The application was for the erection of a residential development of 160 dwellings, including the conversion of the pumphouse building into residential dwellings, to provide 36 no one bedroom and 48 no two bedroom flats; 30 no two bedroom, 37 no three bedroom and 9 no four bedroom houses, along with associated estate roads and accesses onto Sturt Road, car parking, bin and cycle storage, local area of play and external landscaping following the demolition of all other buildings.

Members were advised of the following updates:

“This application is DEFERRED. 

Paragraph 1.4 of the officer report sets out the uncertainty on the exact the level of affordable housing to be secured, at the time of the completion of the officer report and this matter has, to date, not been fully resolved.  Sufficient further viability information had not been provided in time to confirm the level of affordable housing that would be required to be provided and secured through the legal obligation and as such it is not ready to be determined by Members.  In addition, we have received further education and drainage comments which require a fuller assessment.”

RESOLVED that the deferral of application 20/1048 be noted.
