MEMBERS’ UPDATE Planning Committee – 30 March 2011

Site Address: Weir House, Lock, Thames Street, Sonning, RG4 6UR. Application No: F/2010/2231, Pages 6-15. An additional condition to include:- The olive green colour of the frame of the extension hereby approved shall be permanently retained. Reason: To ensure that the external appearance of the building is satisfactory and to safeguard the character of the conservation area in which the property is located. Relevant Policies:- PPS5 Planning for the Historic Environment ______Site Address: 8 Cricket Hill, , RG40 3TN Application No: F/2010/2759, Pages 16 - 34.

- A drawing showing the street scene along part of Cricket Hill and the relative heights of nos. 8 and 9 Cricket Hill has been attached to this update.

- An additional condition has been recommended by the Highways Officer to require facilities to be made on site for storage of materials and for construction parking, as follows:

‘No development shall commence until provision shall be made to accommodate all site operatives, visitors and construction vehicles loading, off-loading and parking within the site during the construction period, in accordance with details to be submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The provision should be maintained and used at all times.

Reason: To limit parking off site, in the interests of highway safety and convenience. Relevant Policies: Core Strategy policy CP6.’

A condition relating to one site construction is normally only applied on larger development sites, but in this case there is concern about the adjoining road (Cricket Hill). Whilst the road width is about 4.8m which is fairly standard, the verges on both sides are quite high and this gives the visual impression of a narrower road and drivers tend to keep further out from the road edge. It also means that any parked car protrudes further into the carriageway and has more impact upon drivers trying to pass parked vehicles. Accordingly a condition regarding construction parking is recommended. It isn’t possible impose a planning condition that prevents workmen parking on the highway as that is outside of the site boundary. Whilst the LPA can seek to identify space on site for parking, it is not possible to enforce against drivers that choose to park on the carriageway. Members’ Update Planning Committee 30 March 2011

- The neighbour at no. 6a Cricket Hill has written in to state that their objection still stands despite the submission of revised plans by the applicant. This neighbour objected on the following grounds:

• The proposal would affect the street scene along Cricket Hill. Its elevated position over no. 9 Cricket Hill would make it stand out more than any other house along Cricket Hill. • Loss of light to nos. 7 and 9 Cricket Hill.

This brings the total number of objections received since the revised plans were submitted to two. Please note that six objections were received on the original submitted plans which have now been superseded.

Site Address: Folly Court, Road, , RG41 4BT Application No: RM/2011/0036, Pages 35-66. A copy of the outline approval is attached.

The recommendation on page 36 is updated as follows:

A APPROVE RESERVED MATTERS subject to:

i) A S106 legal agreement to secure mitigation of the impact on the Special Protection Area; and

ii) the conditions on pages 36-41 of the agenda.

B Should the S106 agreement not be completed by 15 April 2011 authorise the Head of Development Management to refuse the application under delegated powers for the following reason:

The application fails to secure measures to avoid or mitigate the potential adverse effects upon Thames Basin Heaths the Special Protection Area and is, therefore, contrary to Policy CP8 of the Wokingham Borough Core Strategy and PPS9. In addition, since the planning authority is not satisfied that Regulation 62 of The Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010 applies in this case, it must also refuse permission in accordance with Regulation 61(5) of the 2010 Regulations and Article 6(3) of Directive 92/43/EEC.

Site Address: Glebelands, Glebelands Road Application No: F/2010/2525, Pages 67-89 There is a correction to the description of development on page 67 of the agenda which should refer to an “amendment to planning consent F/2005/5523” rather than F/2005/2253.

Consultation Response: Conservation Officer – No Objection subject to control over materials and landscaping. Considers development an improvement over extant permission with regard to impact on the setting of the Listed Building.

Alternative Recommendation: If the applicant is unable to secure the completion of a section 106 Agreement within six weeks, that the development be refused planning permission for the following reason:

The proposal fails to make satisfactory provision of affordable housing and adequate services, amenities and infrastructure needs and consequently would have an unacceptable adverse impact upon the amenities of the area. As such, the development would be contrary to South East Plan policy CC7 and Core Strategy policies CP4 and CP5

______Site Address: Land At Walkers Yard Eversley Road Cross Application No: F/2010/2515, Pages90 - 110. There is an error in condition number 13 the word ‘not’ has been omitted. The condition should read:

‘The site shall not be occupied until works for the disposal of foul and storm water sewage have been provided on the site to serve the development hereby permitted, in accordance with details to be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. ‘

Reason: In order to ensure satisfactory provision is made. Relevant Policy: PPS25 Development and Flood Risk (2006).

The comments below supersede those previously submitted by the Parish Council and were received by email on 28 March 2011. This email was sent to Members of the Planning Committee for information on 29 March 2011.

‘Further to my recent site visit to Walkers Yard and Highfield and our recent discussions regarding the above application I advised the Parish Council to re visited the application to discuss whether their comments previously made remained valid, not to necessarily change the Councils previous decision but due to us holding incorrect information regarding existing residents and the

13 Members’ Update Planning Committee 30 March 2011

fact that the site is now very different from 2007. This was discussed at length and it was agreed to support the application (subject to the below) as it appears to be the best option available for the site and for Arborfield itself. One of the main reasons for this is that there will be just one person (the land owner) overseeing the whole site which would prevent seasonal travellers returning as and when, which is when there has always been problems in Arborfield in the past. Highfield is here to stay and the best solution seems to be to have 1 person, who lives close by, in control of the site. The land owner appears to be very keen to work with the Parish and Borough at the present time and talks very positively about how he envisages the site to look upon completion. We hope that this continues whatever the outcome of the planning application as the Parish are pleased that communications has been opened between the land owner, existing residents of Highfield and the Parish Council.

1. The Parish Council expect WBC to secure an enforceable legal agreement to ensure the occupants are of gipsy origin. 2. The Parish Council expect WBC to secure an enforceable agreement that no more caravans / mobile homes than 1 per pitch are permitted. 3. The landscaping proposals are adhered to and enforcement action taken if not.’

Officer Comment The committee report recommends conditions 3, 14 to address the occupants and number of caravans on the site and condition 6 which requires appropriate landscaping to take place. These conditions are all capable of being enforced should a breach of planning control occur. It is not considered necessary for these matters to be dealt with through a legal agreement. ______Site Address: 356 Kingfisher Drive, Woodley, RG5 3LH Application No: F/2011/0319, Pages 111-126.

Condition 4 Revised: Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 (as amended) (or any Order revoking and re-enacting that Order with or without modification), no buildings, extensions or alterations permitted by Classes A, B, D and F of Part 1 of the Second Schedule of the 1995 Order (or any order revoking and re-enacting that order with or without modification) shall be carried out Reason: To safeguard the character of the area Relevant Policies: Core Strategy policies CP1 and CP3, PPS1: Delivering Sustainable Development

Additional condition 12: No development shall commenced until details of secure cycle storage provision has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The development shall be implemented as approved prior to occupation and retained. Reason: In the aims of sustainability Reveleant Policy: Core Strategy CP1

Additional condition 13: Prior to occupation, written confirmation shall be submitted to the Planning Authority that the development has be carried out in accordance with the sustainble construction methods detailed in the Planning Design and Access statement, dated 11th January referece MP/1.0. The development shall be retained as such. Reason: To promote the use of decentralised and renewable or low-carbon energy in new development as a vital tool to prepare for the effects of climate change and the need to reduce the consumption of resources. Relevant Policy: Core Strategy policy CP1

Alternative Recommendation: If the applicant is unable to secure the completion of a section 106 Agreement within six weeks, that the development be refused planning permission for the following reasons:

1) The proposal fails to make satisfactory provision of adequate services, amenities and infrastructure needs and consequently would have an unacceptable adverse impact upon the amenities of the area. As such, the development would be contrary to South East Plan policy CC7 and Core Strategy policy CP4

2) The proposal fails to provide satisfactory mitigation for the impact of the development on the Thames Basin Heath Special Protection Area. Accordingly, since the planning authority is not satisfied that regulation 49 of

15 Members’ Update Planning Committee 30 March 2011

the Conservation (Natural Habitats etc.) Regulations 1994 applies in this case, it must refuse permission in accordance with regulation 48(5) of the 1994 Regulations and Article 6(3) of Directive 92/43/EEC. Furthermore, the proposal conflicts with South East Plan policies NRM5 and NRM6 and Core Strategy policy CP8. ______Site Address: 409 Finchampstead Road Application No: F/2010/2631, Pages 162 - 183.
