Erection of a terrace of 3No. two storey, two bedroom, three person dwellings and 1No. single storey, two bedroom, four person CAT3 dwelling with associated parking and hard/soft landscaping.

The Planning and Highways Regulation Committee is recommended to grant planning permission subject to:

·         the submission of a Stage 1 Road Safety Audit together with a Designer’s Response that doesn’t raise any safety issues that cannot be addressed by minor, detailed design amendments approved by the Council’s Highway Engineer (delegated to officers to resolve);

·         the imposition of necessary planning conditions; and

·         the completion of a Section 111 legal agreement to secure the following heads of terms:

o   a financial contribution of £10,786.50 plus a £750 monitoring and reporting fee for the provision and maintenance of children’s play and formal recreation facilities;

o   a biodiversity net gain commuted sum to achieve 10% gain in biodiversity units off-site resulting in an offsetting payment currently in the region of £16,516.50 (note: precise figure to be confirmed once a detailed landscaping scheme has been finalised as changes to on-site planting etc. could change the results in the metric); and

o   a commuted sum of £7500 to introduce parking restrictions on Mountain Street around it’s junction with Alpine Road to secure access to the site by way of a Traffic Regulation Order.
