Outline planning permission granted, subject to conditions.

Cllr Yvonne Hargreaves declared a personal interest on this item as soon as she realised that she knew the applicant and offered to leave but Chair said that she was moving directly to the vote. Cllr Hargreaves stayed in the room but did not participate in the vote.

After careful consideration it was proposed by Councillor Chris France, seconded by Councillor Paul Walmsley and a decision was subsequently taken (unanimously) that outline planning permission be granted subject to conditions in the report and a Section 106 Agreement to secure a financial contribution towards the  improvement of public open space.

Cllr Martin Boardman returned.
