The Senior Planning Officer said that a letter had been received from Orleton Parish Council expressing concern about the safety of the vehicular access.  He advised that the Transportation Manager was satisfied with the access proposals.

The Sub Committee had some reservations about the design of the building in a Conservation area but accepted the view of the Development Control Manager that it would be a marginal improvement over the former bakery.  Councillor WLS Bowen felt that timber used in the construction should be from sustainable forest and the Development Control Manager said that this could be included in the informatives attached to the consent.  The Sub Committee also had concerns about the materials being used and the Development Control Manager said that these would be dealt with within the planning conditions.
