Recommendation: Approval + s106 legal agreement

 

Decision:

RESOLVED: That the s106 legal agreement and application be approved as per officer recommendation.

 

Minutes:

Officers introduced the application and took Members through the plans. A recommendation for approval and s106 legal agreement was made.

 

The Committee welcomed the proposal, noting that the new unit would benefit the local area by creating business opportunities and jobs. In response to a question on the reduced contribution and sustainable measures, it was explained that the amount had been calculated using a detailed methodology considering benchmarks and site-specific constraints. Factors such as limited space, lack of tree planting, a secured travel plan, and no additional parking were taken into account. The contribution was confirmed as appropriate and reasonable, although a specific figure could not be provided as the proposal did not fit standard benchmarks.

 

 The officers’ recommendation, was moved, seconded, and when put to a vote, was unanimously agreed.

 

RESOLVED: That the s106 legal agreement and application be approved as per officer recommendation.
