Charlton spoke against the application. Mr Pitt spoke against the application. Mr G. Davies spoke as the agent. In response to questions the Highway Authority advised that assumptions could only be made regarding the negotiations between the previous highways officer and the applicant in respect of highways issues, as there was no record, on file, of these negotiations. In light of this, the Highways Authority did not object to the application but advised that negotiations were required regarding highways matters. The Chair respected the Highway Officer’s position but indicated that it was unacceptable for there to be no detail, on file, of negotiations undertaken by an officer. He asked the Portfolio Holder for Regeneration and Planning to raise this issue with the Portfolio Holder for Highways. The Principal Planning Officer advised that on the basis of the Highways Authority’s response, the highways issues could be dealt with at reserved matters. The Committee also questioned whether a footpath could be incorporated into the access route. The Committee noted that another application had been received for the land to the south of the access road and that this was from a different applicant. It was noted that the Council’s Land Drainage Officer had pointed out that Planning Policy Wales TAN 15: Development & Flood Risk - Development Advice Map [DAM] designated the access route as being in the C2 flood zones. The Committee noted that the response from NRW did not specifically refer to this issue and the Committee considered NRW’s view on this was required. The Professional Lead for Development Management confirmed that the DAM published by NRW did not include the site within the fold zone C2. It was moved and duly seconded to defer further consideration of the application to seek further information on highways issues and the feasibility of a footpath from the Highways Authority and to seek the views of NRW in respect of whether the access route is in the C2 flood zone.
