Erection of two dwellings and garages.

Application for erection of 2 dwellings and garages.

Some members expressed concern regarding the height of the proposed properties and felt that the information and drawings that had been presented were insufficient to be able to make a decision. Councillor Cartwright, seconded by Councillor Morrell, proposed that the application be deferred in order to request this information.

Following officer advice, it was moved by Councillor O’Shea and seconded by Councillor Nichols that the decision be delegated to officers in consultation with the Chairman and the Ward Councillor to approve on receipt of the requested plans, or bring back to committee should they not be happy with the aforementioned plans.

Councillors Cartwright and Morrell agreed to withdraw the motion to defer the application on the condition that the ward councillor consults with residents via the person who made representations at the meeting on behalf of the objectors, which was subsequently agreed.

Upon being put to the vote, Councillor O’Shea’s motion to delegate the decision was CARRIED and it was unanimously

RESOLVED – the decision be delegated to officers in consultation with the Chairman and the Ward Councillor following consultation with residents.
