UNRESTRICTED MINUTES
Decision Maker: Strategic Development Committee
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Decision:
It was noted that due to a clerical error the draft minutes contained in the main agenda pack were incorrect. The correct version had been circulated with the supplemental agenda.
The Committee noted a typographical error in relation to the time of adjournment of the previous meeting. This should read ‘The Chair adjourned the meeting at 9.30pm and reconvened at 9.38pm’ and had been corrected in the revised draft minutes.
RESOLVED
That subject to the above, the minutes of the meeting held on 25th June 2009 be agreed and approved as a correct record.
MATTER ARISING
Councillor Archer enquired as to why the application in respect of the Eric and Treby Estates, deferred at the previous meeting to enable officers to present a supplemental report setting out reasons for refusal and the implications of the decision, was not included on the current agenda.
Owen Whalley, Head of Major Project Development, reported that the application had not been determined and remained live. The applicant had indicated that they wished to make amendments to their proposal to address the issues raised by the Committee and this was permissible. The amended proposal had not yet been received and the officers therefore decided not to bring a report to the current meeting. However, the matter would come back to the Committee at a future date. In the event that the amendments to the scheme were substantial, this would be as a fresh report and new public speaking rights would apply. If no amended scheme was submitted, the officers would report back with reasons for refusal as agreed at the last meeting.
The Chair and a number of Members expressed concern about the delay in determining this application and asked that a report be submitted to the next meeting. Councillor Archer asked that in the meantime the officers circulate a note of the reasons given by the Committee as to why they were minded to refuse the application and Mr Whalley undertook to do this.
