Erection of temporary teaching units for a period of 18-24 months, to provide teaching accommodation whilst the wider re-development works are undertaken on the wider site. Including temporary infrastructure works.

Councillor Garelick had declared a non-pecuniary interest in items 9 and 10 as the application site was situated within her Ward. She remained in the room during the consideration of these items.

Officers presented the application and highlighted the information in the addendum. The application sought permission for a temporary teaching unit for a period of 18-24 months. The unit would be utilised as a teaching facility while the development of the site was underway. The application was recommended for approval.

In response to questions from Members, it was confirmed that the temporary building would be demolished at the end of the agreed period and the land restored to its original use as a sports pitch. Members heard that no additional hard surfacing around the existing trees was proposed and all trees would be protected during the construction phase.

Members raised no further concerns. The officer’s recommendation was moved, seconded and, when put to a vote, unanimously agreed.

RESOLVED: That the application be approved subject to amendments to condition 8 as stated in the addendum report.
