The Principal Planning Officer presented the report update to the committee and advised Members that the revised plans were prepared in the context of a new design Page 1 Subject to approval at the next Development Control Committee meeting 276 Development Control Committee - 25.11.20 code that increased the number of character areas from 5 to 6. Each area now adopted a more distinctive design approach. In the course of discussion, overall support for the proposals was clear. Some reservations were expressed with regard to the phasing of the development and the need for the public sewer network to be improved by Southern Water. It was explained that whilst the Council did not have the exact details of the required network reinforcement at the current time, it would be something that the Council would expect to be completed by Southern Water over a two-year timeframe. The Committee RESOLVED That authority be delegated to the Director of Place or Group Head of Planning to approve the application subject to conditions as detailed in the report update following the expiry of 21 days from 18 November or a date that both Parish Councils have confirmed whether they propose to make any representations to the District Council, whichever is the sooner. 323.

Resubmission following AL/51/19/PL & AL/27/20/PL The Planning Officer presented the application and the report update to Members. He advised that the previous applications had been REFUSED on the basis of the trees in situ. The report update confirmed that the application now supplied the Tree schedule which had been omitted from the original report in the agenda. He further advised that there were a couple of minor conflicts with two policies, highlighting that there was no drainage impact assessment or no archaeological desk-based assessment but that these were outweighed by the benefit that would be made to the housing supply shortfall.
