South Ruislip Library, Plot A, Victoria Road, Ruislip - 67080/APP/2010/1419 Erection of a three storey building to provide for a new library, adult learning facilities, florist shop, 10 one-bedroom flats, together with associated parking and external works (involving demolition of existing library building).
Recommendation: Approval subject to a Section 106 Agreement Minutes: Members agreed it was good to improve Council library facilities but were disappointed that the scheme did not include any social housing. However, the Committee accepted that there were sound financial reasons why this was so.
In response to a number of concerns, officers explained that the application site was located in playing fields and not the green belt and that following a parking management exercise, 20 car parking spaces was the maximum number of spaces the scheme could accommodate.
Members asked about the florist shop included within the proposal and were informed that condition 47 – use of retail unit, set out the Class A1 usage of the 11 m² retail unit.
It was moved and seconded that the application be approved. On being out to the vote, approval was unanimously agreed.
Resolved - That the application be approved as set out in the officers report and the Addendum.
