Additional documents: Decision: The Committee RESOLVED:
To GRANT planning permission for the removal of condition 12 on planning permission reference PA/04/01541 dated 20 April 2007. Minutes: Update Report Tabled.
Following an introduction from Jerry Bell, Strategic Applications Manager, Members sought and were given clarification on the location of the site in questions.
Mr Bell also informed Members that the removal of the condition would allow three of the four boats to apply for residents parking permits. A recent midday survey had shown that while there were 52 car parking spaces on Sewardstone Road, on average, there were 23 cars parked in the area during the day. Parking restrictions only applied between 8.30am to 5.30pm. Some objections had been received in relation to parking; these were addressed in the main report and the update report which had been tabled.
On a vote of three for and nil against (Councillor Rupert Eckhardt having entered the meeting after consideration of the item had commenced), the Committee RESOLVED:
To GRANT planning permission for the removal of condition 12 on planning permission reference PA/04/01541 dated 20 April 2007.
