It was proposed by Councillor Claire Cozler and seconded by Councillor Sheila Denwood:

 

“That the application be refused.”

 

Upon being put to the vote, 7 Members voted in favour of the proposition, with 7 against and 1 abstention, whereupon the Vice-Chairman, in accordance with Council Procedure Rule 19.2, used her casting vote and declared the proposal to be lost by virtue of her casting vote.

 

It was then proposed by Councillor Jane Parkinson and seconded by Councillor Susan Sykes:

 

“That the application be approved.”

 

(The proposal was contrary to the case officer’s recommendation that the application be refused).

 

Members clarified the reason for the contrary proposal, being that, the need for rural housing overrides the other material considerations arising from national and local policy in the context of this application.
