Comment:

The Committee was advised that additional plans were needed to accurately reflect the proposed development.  During the debate Members discovered that the extent of the agricultural holding had been reduced by the sale of 2 fields.  They were advised that the holding was still above the minimum size to achieve viability, but the submitted plans should be amended to reflect the current position.  Consequently the recommendation was changed to authorise the Head of Planning and Transportation to grant consent once the necessary amended plans had been received.

Head of Planning and Transportation authorised to grant planning consent,
