            Officer Introduction

1)               The Planning Manager introduced the report and gave a presentation by reference to plans, photographs and elevational drawings. It was explained that on 27 January 2016 the Committee resolved that it was minded to grant the application subject to a s106 agreement requiring a sustainable transport contribution. The unilateral undertaking was not received until after the adoption of the City Plan Part One, therefore, it fell that the application had to be reconsidered against the new development plan for the City prior to any formal decision being issued, including an affordable housing contribution which had been agreed by the applicant. On the previous report, conditions regarding landscaping and materials were agreed and these had been resubmitted on the application. The application was recommended for approval, subject to a s106 agreement, for the reasons set out in the report.
