Issue - meetings

Erection of two industrial/employment buildings comprised of 11 units (Class B2/E(g)) with associated parking/turning area, landscaping and associated infrastructure.

It was proposed by Councillor Keith Budden and seconded by Councillor Alan Greenwell:

“That the application be approved subject to the conditions in the Committee Report and subject to additional conditions regarding (i) Hours of Operation (ii) Delivery Hours (iii) No External Operations and (iv) a Use Class limitation of only B2 / E(g) and subject to the application being delegated back to the Chief Officer Planning and Climate Change to secure a satisfactory noise addendum from the applicant that would demonstrate that the additional conditions and those already in the recommendation would ensure acceptable noise levels can be achieved for B2 uses as well as Eg uses given the relationship to the nursing home.”
