Minutes:
The Planning Officer presented the application to the Committee. He repeated that the applicant had distributed a document to all committee members covering reasons for deferral. The retaining walls were amended to be made of natural stone.
Public Speaker, Objector – Spoke on:
· Dr Low did not speak at the appeal
· No data on groundwater catchment
· No hydrological survey data
· Rare plants on site at risk
Public Speaker, Supporter – Spoke on:
· Details of lighting, drainage, hedge row and tree protection, ecological mitigation, landscape and ecology implementation, and management of construction to be provided at a later date
· Scheme to provide affordable housing
· Controls to ensure affordable homes are delivered in step with the other dwellings
· Focus on provision of 2 or 3 bed homes which is confirmed by evidence
· No objections from Biodiversity Officer, Specialist Ecology Consultant, Natural England, or Devon County Council.
· Application accords with parameters in outline permission
Public Speaker, Supporter – Spoke on:
· Additional information has been provided and changes have been made since the Committee deferral
· The fen will be protected and condition 20 will be discharged only when appropriate
· The application is in consultation with Natural England
· The application will help first-time buyers to purchase a home
· The dwellings will help meet local needs
· The masterplan and design code are both approved
· Reduced carbon emission from homes
· The application boosts investment and jobs
Comments from Councillors during the debate included:
· Drainage details haven’t been provided
· Natural England have concerns
· Council is responsible for protecting the fen
· The hydrology should be certain
· Vistry have provided revisions to the scheme following deferral
· Vistry would be happy to condition the carbon reduction plan
· Vistry offered to include appropriate renewable technology to conform with Future Home Standards 2025
· Outline planning permission has been granted
· Natural England have not objected to the application
· The evidence used and tested at the appeal defines the hydrological area as the same as the surface water catchment area and so cannot be used as a reason against the application
· Neighbouring authorities have similar applications
· Will the panels be stone?
· The houses with improved visual quality are limited to 7
In response to these comments Officers clarified the following:
· Enforcement Officers are considering conditions that may have been broken and attending the site with Ward Members, especially for major sites.
· Conditions will remain in place to be discharged in the future once details are provided
· Only the reserved matters are to be considered – these are appearance, landscaping, layout, and scale.
· The Committee should not refuse on outline matters
· The panels are natural stone
· Officers will be checking the site and inviting ward members if approval is granted
It was proposed by Councillor J Taylor and seconded by Councillor Bradford that permission be refused due to the number of appealing landmark dwellings being insufficient at 7 of 93 dwellings.
A roll call vote was taken. The result was as below.
For: Cllrs Atkins, Bradford, Hall, J Taylor (4)
Against: Cllrs Goodman-Bradbury, Hook, Nuttall, Palethorpe, Parrott, Sanders (6)
Abstained: Cllrs Cox and P Parker (2)

Materials Plan (Phase 2.2) |
REASON: In order to ensure compliance with the approved drawings.
2. Prior to the commencement of the phase of the development for which reserved matters details are hereby approved details of the pocket park set at the south end of parcel 2.2 in this phase shall have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The details shall include:
a) sectional drawings showing finished ground levels;
b) details of retaining structures and means of enclosure;
c) the specification and type of surfacing to be provided for the pocket park;
d) the specification, type and method of fixing of the play equipment; and
e) the specification and type of planting to be incorporated into the pocket park.
Thereafter, prior to the occupation of any of the dwellings for which reserved matters approval is hereby granted, the pocket park shall have been constructed and landscaped in accordance with the approved details and thereafter the pocket park shall be retained and maintained for the lifetime of the development.
REASON: In the interest of ensuring the delivery of an appropriate and accessible area of play for the benefit of the future occupiers of the development. This is a pre-commencement condition so as to ensure that the provision of a play area to serve the future occupants of dwellings of this phase is made available without undue delay.
3. Prior to the commencement of work to any of the Devon red sandstone screen walls as specified on plan reference 21017.2.2.102 Rev F hereby approved, a sample panel of stonework shall have been constructed on site and made available for inspection, together with details and specification of materials used for its construction submitted to and approved in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The sample panel shall be approximately 2 square metres in size. Once approved the panel shall remain on site until the completion of works and the stonework shall be constructed to match the approved sample panel and thereafter the Devon red sandstone screen walls shall be retained and maintained for the lifetime of the development.
REASON: To ensure that the development reflects the distinctive character of the local area using appropriate and high-quality materials.
NB: The conditions attached to the outline permission, and the obligations secured under the s106 legal agreements remain in force.
