Planning applications and Miscellaneous Matters including an update on Planning Appeals pdf icon PDF 85 KB

To consider a report by the Director of Planning and Regeneration on development control matters, including information regarding new planning appeals and decisions.

Minutes:

The Committee noted a report by the Director of Planning and Regeneration on development control matters, including information regarding new appeals and decisions.

P/19/0759/FP - 90 GUDGE HEATH LANE PO15 5AY pdf icon PDF 723 KB

Minutes:

The Committee received the deputations referred to in Minute 5 above.

 

The Committee’s attention was drawn to the Update Report which contains the following information:-

 

Officers have consulted with Hampshire County Council (Flood Water Management) on the suitability of the French drain. HCC FWM have responded with the following advice:

 

“We have reviewed the documentation provided and summarised our views below. It should be noted that we would usually request more information if assessing a major planning application but given the size of the development, it is not felt appropriate for this situation.

 

Soakaways are shown to be unfeasible (as per the RGP report) due to the soil characteristics in the area and failure of the existing soakaways but this implies that the French drain will be ineffective as it is essentially a linear soakaway. While it should intercept overland flows successfully there remains the question over where the water will go from there. If there is no infiltration, the French drain will fill up with water and further overland flows will continue to flow towards the boundary.

 

Given the rest of the drainage system being provided within the housing area, this drain should only be taking overland flows from a very small area so there shouldn’t be a huge amount of water heading towards it. Water would have always flowed downhill towards the existing properties and the new development would effectively intercept a lot of the flows, particularly at the lower return period.

 

There does not appear to be considerable amount of water that would be routed in this direction if the permeable paving functions as designed and from the information on site topography, there appears to be only a very small section of verge between the permeable paving and existing housing. Overland flows on this section of verge would be minimal and shouldn’t lead to adverse flooding issues.

 

It may be that a more appropriate measure than the French drain would be a small bund along the boundary that would still allow water to escape over time with evapotranspiration effects.”

 

Upon being proposed and seconded the officer recommendation to grant planning permission, subject to:

 

i)             The conditions in the report; and

ii)            An additional condition requiring precise details of position, height and width of the bund to be agreed with the Local Planning Authority, and then constructed on site within one month of the date of the decision notice,

Was voted on and CARRIED.

(Voting: 8 in favour; 0 against; 1 abstention)

 

RESOLVED that subject to:

 

i)             The conditions in the report; and

ii)            An additional condition requiring precise details of position, height and width of the bund to be agreed with the Local Planning Authority, and then constructed on site within one month of the date of the decision notice,

PLANNING PERMISSION be granted.
