Comment:

Members
were advised that some conditions had been omitted when the report
had been printed and these were set out in full in the update
circulated prior to the meeting. In
addition an amended plan had been received that clarified the site
boundary.
Members
considered that an additional condition should be imposed to
control foul water drainage.
|
|
|
Decision:
|
Planning permission
|
|
|
Conditions:
|
As per report (Item 3(a)), with the following
additional conditions:
16. In the event
that contamination is found at any time when carrying out the
approved development that was not previously identified it must be
reported in writing immediately to the Local Planning Authority. An
investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken in accordance
with the requirements of condition 13, and where remediation is
necessary a remediation scheme must be prepared in accordance with
the requirements of condition 14, which is subject to the approval
in writing of the Local Planning Authority. Following completion of
measures identified in the approved remediation scheme a
verification report must be prepared, which is subject to the
approval in writing of the Local Planning Authority in accordance
with condition 15.
Reason: To ensure that risks from land contamination to the future
users of the land and neighbouring land are minimised, together
with those to controlled waters, property and ecological systems,
and to ensure that the development can be carried out safely
without unacceptable risks to workers, neighbours and other offsite
receptors in accordance with Policy CS5 of the Local Plan for the
New Forest District outside the National Park (Core Strategy) and
Policy DM4 of the Local Plan for the New Forest District outside
the National Park. (Part 2: Sites and Development
Management).
17. No
development shall take place on site until full details of the
method of construction of the means of access to the premises,
including provision of a 3m tarmac strip adjoining the public
vehicular highway to the development site have been submitted and
approved by the Local Planning Authority. The approved access
details, shall be constructed and fully
implemented prior to occupation.
Reason: To ensure adequate access provision for the approved
development in accordance with Policy CS2 of the Core Strategy for
the New Forest District outside the National Park.

hereby approved shall be designed to limit the consumption of
wholesome water to 110 litres per person per day in accordance with
Regulation 36(2)b of Part G of the
Building Regulations 2010 as amended.
Reason: The higher optional standard for water efficiency under

The
Council’s Valuer did not accept the applicant’s case
that they could not make any financial contribution towards
affordable housing.
The
applicant had confirmed that refuse collection could be carried out
on site, with all service vehicles able to enter and leave the site
in a forward gear. On this basis the
Highway Authority had withdrawn their objection.
The
applicant had confirmed that they wanted the application to be
determined as set out, without deferral to allow them to respond to
the concerns on viability or for an independent review of the
viability case to be sought, as would normally be the
case.

Comment:
|
Cllrs
Gossage, Penson and White disclosed non-pecuniary interests as
members of Lymington and Pennington Town Council which had
commented on the application. They concluded that there were no
grounds under common law to prevent them from remaining in the
meeting to speak, and in the case of Cllrs Penson and White, to
vote. Cllr Gossage did not have a
vote.
Mr
Clothier, Area Planning Officer (Major Projects), disclosed a
personal interest on the grounds that he was a personal friend of
the applicant’s agent. He was not
present for the determination of this application.
The
Committee was advised of amendments to the report, as set out in
the update circulated prior to the meeting.
The
officer’s recommendation was amended by the deletion of the
reason for refusal on highway safety grounds, and its replacement
with a reason on the grounds of the failure to contribute towards
addressing the need for affordable housing in the District, as set
out in the update circulated prior to the meeting.
|
|
|
Decision:
|
Refused.
|
|
|
Refusal reasons:
|
As per
report (Item 3(b)), with the deletion of original reason 3 and its
substitution with:
The proposed development would fail to make any
contribution toward addressing the substantial need for affordable
housing in the District. The proposal
would therefore conflict with an objective of the Core Strategy for
the New Forest District outside the National Park 2009 and with the
terms of Policies CS15 and CS25 of the Core Strategy for the New
Forest District outside the National Park (2009).
