Minutes:
Mr Owen Whalley, (Service Head, Planning and Building Control), presented details of the site and proposal regarding the Old Ford Methodist Church.
Ms Ila Roberson (Applications Manager Development and Renewal) presented the detailed report.
Ms Roberson detailed the merits of the application. In policy terms the scheme was acceptable. The scheme would provide much needed accommodation for vulnerable people and a community centre with no adverse impacts. The scheme would also be subject to a car free agreement to mitigate impact.
In terms of the concern that the proposal would create anti social behaviour, there was no evidence to support this.
In response to Members questions, it was reported and that the outdoor terraces would be screened to mitigate impact and that the waste storage facility was adequate and, if necessary, could accommodate larger household items.
