Proposal:      Outline Application for access with all other matters reserved, for up to 72 new homes plus associated green infrastructure including community orchard

 

The Committee considered the written report and recommendation from the Head of Planning to grant outline planning consent.

 

The Committee received supplementary information, circulated prior to the meeting which:

 

(1)         summarised an additional objection received since the report was published;

 

(2)         included the recommended conditions to be attached to the outline consent together with an amendment to recommended condition 20, if granted;

 

(3)         detailed the additional information requested by the Site Viewing Working party held on 5 September 2019; and

 

(4)          summarised responses from East Hampshire District Council and Hampshire Highways received since the report was published;

 

During the meeting the Committee noted the following amendment to the report:

 

 Paragraph 7.136 – 3rd sentence – the words “S106 Agreement” to be replaced with the words “construction access conditions”.

 

In addition, a request from Portsmouth NHS Trust for a financial contribution was raised with members. The members’ attention was drawn to paragraph 7.156 of the report, which addressed the matter and the conclusion that it was not considered by officers that a contribution could be substantiated for the reasons set out. It was also confirmed that members were welcome to debate this matter, if they wished.

           

The Committee was addressed by Mr Blackwell, the applicant’s agent, who supported the officer’s report and recommendations for the following reasons:

 

(a)          the proposal would contribute towards Council’s five-year housing supply in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework;            

(b)          the proposal would not prejudice the potential future development of the land to the North, in East Hampshire District in accordance with one of criteria set out in the emerging policy of the HBLP 2036. Furthermore, the indicative details showed that land within the East Hampshire District administrative area would be managed to safeguard the potential for further new homes should East Hampshire District Council choose to allocate such in their emerging review Local Plan;

 

(c)          the proposed public open space provision, including the community orchard exceeded the open space requirements;

 

(d)          the proposed flood mitigation measures and drainage strategy could accommodate the proposed development and any development on the land to the north of the application site within East Hampshire;

 

(e)          the access to the site and crematorium was owned by the applicant and would be continued to be owned by them; the applicant had granted the crematorium a right to use this access.

 

(f)           appropriate mitigation and enhancements were proposed to ensure that there were no residual effects on bats                                                                

 

In response to questions from members of the Committee, Mr Blackwell advised that:

 

(i)           the proposed layout would be designed to enable the land to the north of the site to be developed, if East Hampshire District Council decided to allocate this land for housing purposes in any future local plan;

 

(ii)          the proposal had been submitted after discussions with both this Council and East Hampshire District Council

 

(iii)         the provision of the community orchard would be dependent upon East Hampshire District Council (EHDC) granting consent for a partner planning application submitted to them and EHDC entering into a S106 agreement to secure the arrangements for this proposed orchard;

 

(iv)         the management arrangements for the proposed community orchard would be included in the S106 Agreement referred to in (iii) above;

 

(v)          a pedestrian/cycle route was proposed to connect into the existing provision at the Linden Homes development to the west. Pedestrians wishing to travel from the Linden Homes development eastwards would use the proposed pedestrian/cycle route to the emergency access, enter the proposed residential development and re-join Bartons Road at the main access;

 

(vi)         a box junction would be introduced at the junction of the access to the proposed development to ensure that traffic did not block this entrance; and

 

(vii)        the highways authority opposed a new access onto Bartons Road.           

In response to questions from the Committee, officers:

 

(AA)      indicated where the affordable housing properties were located on the indicative plan. A decision on the location of the affordable housing was a matter for the reserved matters application;

 

(BB)      indicated that bats were likely to forage the site but that the woodland and woodland strip to the west of the site were particularly important routes;

 

(CC)      advised that the application site showed signs of being farmed recently;

 

(DD)      reported that a nutrient budget had been provided in line with Natural England’s advice dated June 2019;

 

(EE)      advised that the site was nutrient neutral/positive. Therefore, a mitigation package was not required for this development;

 

(FF)       advised that the indicative plan indicated where roads for any proposed development on land to the north of the application site could link with this development;

 

(HH)      reported that EHDC had not allocated the land to the north of the application site for housing purposes. The Committee was therefore required to only consider the application submitted which provided housing within Havant Borough and supporting green infrastructure with EHDC area;

 

(II)          advised that the S106 agreement could include a provision requiring the orchard to be planted before the commencement of the remainder of the development;

 

(JJ)        confirmed that the timing for the planting of the landscape buffer would be controlled under recommended condition 7;

 

(KK)      advised that provisions to ensure that the ecological mitigation measures proposed would be kept in perpetuity would be considered when finalising the Section 106 agreement;

 

(LL)       advised that a person, who wished to amend a S106 agreement within 5 years from the date of the agreement would need the consent all the parties involved. After this period a person bound by a Section 106 agreement would need the consent of the Local Panning Authority, which could be sought through the application process;

 

(LL)       showed the location of the crossing point in Bartons Road;

 

(MM)     reported that the Education Authority had requested a contribution towards the provision of additional places at Sharps Copse School; a contribution towards the provision of places at secondary schools had not been requested as these schools were operating under their capacity;

 

(NN)      advised that Sharps Copse School and St Albans School were approximately 1.4 km and 14.6 km away from the proposed development respectively;

(OO)      advised that the request for funding from the Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust was not in relation to the provision of physical infrastructure but instead was intended to meet a revenue (staff) gap;

 

(PP)      the amended condition 20 was still necessary to conform with the emerging local plan; and

 

(QQ)      without the development of this site, there would not be a sufficient supply of new housing in the Borough which would in turn put sites not currently allocated or identified in the current or emerging local plan at risk of development.

 

The Committee discussed this application in detail together with the views raised by the deputee.

 

The Committee, in particular, discussed the relationship of the proposed development to the crematorium. The Committee acknowledged that a number of conditions, such as the height restriction of the dwellings, had been recommended to reduce the impact of the development on the crematorium. However, the Committee also felt that the character and setting of the crematorium especially during the construction of the development would be further protected if the:

 

(AA)      S106 agreement included a provision requiring the planting of the community orchard before the commencement of the remainder of the development; and

 

(BB)      the conditions required the screening proposed for the access road to the crematorium and the boundaries of the site adjoining the crematorium to include semi-mature trees.

 

The Committee also considered that, in view of the relationship of the proposed development to the crematorium, the reserved matters application relating to this outline application should be determined by this Committee and not under delegated powers by the officers.

 

It was therefore,

 

RESOLVED that:

 

A)          any reserved matters application for development of this site should be submitted for determination by the Committee and not dealt with by the officers under delegated powers; and

 

B)          the Head of Planning be authorised to grant outline consent for application APP/19/00007 subject to the following:

                            17     The development hereby permitted shall not commence unless and until the implementation of a programme of archaeological assessment in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) has been secured, submitted to and approved by the Local Planning Authority in order to recognise, characterise and record any archaeological features and deposits that may exist here. The assessment should initially take the form of trial trenches that are within the footprints of the proposed houses, garages, access roads and service trenches.

                           

                                      Reason: To assess the extent, nature and date of any archaeological deposits that might be present and the impact of the development upon these heritage assets having due regard to policy CS11 of the Havant Borough Local Plan 2011 and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

                            18     The development hereby permitted shall not commence unless and until the implementation of a programme of archaeological mitigation of impact, based on the results of the trial trenching, in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation has been secured, submitted to and approved by the Local Planning Authority.

 

                                      Reason: To mitigate the effect of the works associated with the development upon any heritage assets and to ensure that information regarding these heritage assets is preserved by record for future generations having due regard to policy CS11 of the Havant Borough Local Plan 2011 and the National Planning Policy Framework.

                                      Reason: To contribute to our knowledge and understanding of our past by ensuring that opportunities are taken to capture evidence from the historic environment and to make this publicly available having due regard to policy CS11 of the Havant Borough Local Plan 2011 and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

                            20     No part of the development hereby permitted shall be occupied until a water efficiency calculation in accordance with the Government's National Calculation Methodology for assessing water efficiency in new dwellings has been undertaken which demonstrates that no more than 110 litres of water per person per day shall be consumed within the development, and this calculation has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. All measures necessary to meet the agreed water efficiency calculation must be installed before first occupation and retained thereafter.

                           

                                      Reason: There is existing evidence of high levels of nitrogen and phosphorus in the water environment with evidence of eutrophication at some European designated nature conservation sites in the Solent catchment. The PUSH Integrated Water Management Strategy has identified that there is uncertainty as to whether new housing development can be accommodated without having a detrimental impact on the designated sites within the Solent. Further detail regarding this can be found in the appropriate assessment that was carried out regarding this planning application. To ensure that the proposal may proceed as sustainable development, there is a duty upon the local planning authority to ensure that necessary avoidance measures are provided against any impacts which might arise upon the designated sites. In coming to this decision, the Council have had regard to Regulation 63 of the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017, Policy CS11 of the Havant Borough Local Plan (Core Strategy) 2011 and Policy E14 of the Pre-Submission Havant Borough Local Plan 2036.

Any lighting scheme agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority shall not thereafter be altered without prior consent other than for routine maintenance, which does not change its details.

           

                                      Reason: To protect the occupants of nearby properties, on and off site, from light disturbance / pollution, in the interests of protected species and biodiversity and to ensure appropriate security / safety for future residents having due regard to policies CS11 and CS16 of the Havant Borough Local Plan 2011 and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

                            22     Prior to the commencement of the development full details of the Electrical Vehicle (EV) Charging points, shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The details shall demonstrate that EV charging points are provided for each residential unit with off street parking and that a minimum of 10% of spaces within any communal parking areas for flats are provided with EV charging points. The details shall include the location of the EV charging points and a full specification of the materials to be used externally on the Charging points.
