Erection of new house and ancillary garage.

Minutes:

Erection of new house and ancillary garage.

 

The Local Ward Member Councillor KG Grumbley spoke in support of the application. He emphasised that any money raised from a section 106 agreement should be used to widen and strengthen the road outside the parish hall, as suggested by the Parish Council. He requested that paragraph one of the draft heads of terms agreement should be amended to allocate the money to the project mentioned previously.

 

Members agreed that any monies raised under a section 106 agreement should be deployed in the application area wherever possible. The Principal Planning Officer informed the Sub-Committee about the procedure involved regarding contributions obtained under Section 106 agreements and the purposes they could be used for. He advised that in this instance contribution had been voluntarily by the applicant.  The Sub-Committee therefore agreed that the request made by the parish council and the Local Member should be granted and that part of the contribution money could go towards meeting the costs of the requested work.
