The Principal Planner introduced the report and explained that the application site (0.3ha) was the southern-most part of the Southend Road Car Park, bounded by Southend Road and Beach Terrace Road in Hunstanton.

 

The application sought full planning permission for the development of 32 apartments, together with associated landscaping, 2 cycle stores, infrastructure and access.

 

The 32 residential units proposed comprised:

 

12 no. 1 bed-apartments

18 no. 2 bed-apartments; and

2 no. 3-bed apartments.

 

Six of the apartments would be affordable housing.

 

A two-and-a-half storey residential building was proposed, laid around a private central courtyard and parking court, with a wing extending further north along the street frontage of Southend Road.  An additional storey on the northern wing would accommodate under-croft parking at ground floor level.

 

The existing exit from the car park from the south at Beach Terrace Road would be closed off, and a new vehicular access to the development would be formed from the west side of the site off Beach Terrace Road.

 

The car park would continue to be accessed from the other existing vehicular access adjoining Harlequin House further north on Beach Terrace Road.  Emergency exit from the car park would be available through this site should the need arise.

 

The proposal included a new footpath along Beach Terrace Road, around the south and west sides of the application site.

 

Members will recall that this application that this application had been presented to the 12 April 2021 meeting where it was resolved that the application be deferred to another meeting for determination.

 

The Committee noted the key issues for consideration when determining the application as set out in the report.

 

In accordance with the adopted public speaking protocol Mr A Murray (objecting on behalf the Town Council), Dale Gagen (supporting), and David Jones (supporting) addressed the Committee in relation to the application.

 

In accordance with Standing Order 34, Councillor P Gidney addressed the Committee in support of the application.

 

In accordance with Standing Order 34, Councillor T Parish addressed the Committee.

 

The Chair then invited the Committee to debate the applications.

 

Some Members of the Committee expressed concern in relation to the loss of income from the car park, the enforcement of the proposed covenant, affordability and the loss of a community facility.

 

The Assistant Director explained that a lot of the issues raised were non-planning issues.  In relation to the proposed covenant, he explained that this had not been given any weight by officers and was not covered by planning policy.  The loss of a community facility was the same as the loss of car parking and was covered within the report.

 

Martin Chisholm, the Council’s Assistant Director for Operations and Commercial displayed a snapshot of car parking capacity on 25 April for Southend Road, which showed that 80 spaces were in use for the market that day, leaving 408 spaces.  The number of cashless and pay and display stays amounted to 339, so there would still be capacity within that car park in excess of those that bought tickets.

 

There was also a graph which showed the times when people arrived at the car park.  He also displayed images of different times of day at the car park which demonstrated that there was still capacity within the car park.  He added that he had no concern about the impact of the rearrangement of the car park or potential loss of income from them.

 

The Chair invited Nikki Patton, the Housing Strategy Officer, to answer queries in relation to affordability of the scheme, the Accelerated Construction Programme, and the proposed covenant.

 

The Assistant Director advised that this was a windfall site, and therefore there was no requirement to prove a need for housing on this site given where it was located and policy compliance.

 

The Principal Planner highlighted an error on page 37 of the agenda and explained what it should read.

 

The vote for approval of the application and to amend condition 20, was counted by a show of hands as follows:  11 votes for approval, 4 against and 2 abstentions.

 

RESOLVED:  (A)       That the application be approved subject to the completion of a Section 106 Agreement within four months of the date of the resolution to approve and the amendment of condition 20.

 

(B)       That the application be refused if the Section 106 Agreement is not signed within four months of the date of the resolution to approve.

 

The Committee then adjourned that 10.47 am and reconvened at 11.01 am

(ii)        20/01265/FM

The Principal Planner introduced the report and explained that the site comprised an existing static caravan site known as North Beach Caravan Park.  There were currently 31 caravans on the site, accessed via a central access road, although there was planning permission for 34.

 

The site was bounded to the south by other static caravan sites along Heacham Beach.  The static caravan site had been in place for many years with a restriction on the occupation of the caravans due to flood risk issues.

 

29 of the static caravans had consent to be occupied for holiday purposes between the period 20 March ad 31 October in any one year and the remaining 5 caravans for holiday accommodation between the period 1 March or Maundy Thursday (whichever is the sooner) and 31 October in each year.

 

For many months the caravans had not been used due to the restrictions imposed by the government relating to the coronavirus pandemic.

 

This proposal sought the extension of the season for occupations for a temporary period of time to compensate for the loss of use in the spring and summer months of 2020 in particular.

 

The key justification for this application, which needed to the weighed in the balance, was Government guidance issued on 14 July 2020, in relation to this issue.

 

The application had been referred to the Committee for determination as there was an objection from the Parish Council and it raised matters of wider concern.

 

The Committee noted the key issues for consideration whilst determining the application, as set out in the report.

 

In accordance with the adopted speaking protocol, Graham Reader (objecting on behalf of the Parish Council) and Lydia Plumb (supporting and her speech also applied to applications 20/01268/FM and 20/01269/FM) addressed the Committee in relation to the application.

 

In accordance with Standing Order 34, Councillor Parish addressed the Committee objecting to the application.

 

Councillor Bambridge proposed that condition 3 be amended to include additional wording to ensure that dogs are kept on leads, which was seconded by Councillor Ryves and agreed by the Committee.

 

Councillor Bambridge also proposal an additional condition to ensure that all residents of the caravans signed up to the Flood Evacuation Plan.  The Assistant Director advised that if permission were to be granted, then this condition should be imposed (as per Condition 4, detailed on page 78 of the agenda).

 

Several Members expressed concern in relation to the impact on the environment, and the impact on people’s safety and could put people’s lives at risk.

 

Councillor Mrs Spikings asked whether the applicant could erect boards advising people when there were to be high tides, etc.  Later in the debate, the Senior Planner advised that she had received an email from the Emergency Planning Officer that there were signs already in place run by the Environment Agency on the flood banks at Heacham North and South Beach to warn of the risks in those areas.

 

Councillor Ryves proposed that the operators of the site put up specific signs at their sites to inform people of the risks which could different to those in the summer months.

 

The Assistant Director advised that condition 3 did ensure that prior to use of the caravans, boards were to be installed and remain in situ.

 

Councillor De Whalley, with the correct number of supporters asked for a recorded vote on the recommendation to approve the application, together with the additional condition to ensure that the development was operated in full accordance with the Food Risk Assessment and Amended Flood Evacuation Plan, was undertaken by the Democratic Services Officer as follow:

Heacham:  Putting Green Caravan Park, Jubilee Road:  Temporary use of land for the siting of caravans for holiday occupation on an extended season between 6 March and 6 January (following year) up until and including 31 December 2022:  Heacham Holidays Ltd

 

Click here to view a recording of this item on You Tube.

 

The Senior Planner introduced the report and explained that the site comprised an existing static caravan site known as Putting Green Caravan Park.  It currently benefitted from an extant permanent permission granted in November 1975 for all year-round siting of 137 caravans for occupation as holiday accommodation between 1 April to 30 September (inclusive) in any one year.  The occupational period was extended by a Lawful Development Certificate in June 2011 to cover the period between 20 March and 31 October (inclusive) in any one year.

 

The site was accessed from Jubilee Road to the south and was bounded to the north, south and east by other caravan sites and to the west by beach services, beach huts and the beach.

 

Earlier this year the caravans were not able to be used due to the restrictions imposed by the Government relating to the coronavirus pandemic.

 

This proposal sought the extension of the season for occupations for a temporary period of time to compensate for the loss of use during 2020.

 

The key issue to be considered was that this would extend the holiday season into the period of highest flood risk from the temporary periods, although there were also key issues to be considered, as set out in the report.

 

The application had been referred to the Committee for determination as there was an objection from the Parish Council and it raised matters of wider concern.

 

In accordance with the adopted speaking protocol, Mr Graham Reader (objecting) addressed the Committee in relation to the application.

 

Councillor De Whalley, with the correct number of supporters asked for a recorded vote on the recommendation to approve the application, which was undertaken by the Democratic Services Officer as follow:

Click here to view a recording of this item on You Tube.

 

The Principal Planner introduced the report and explained that the application site comprised ‘Longridge’ / No.37 Elm High Road, which was a large detached chalet bungalow set in substantial mature landscaped grounds (0.6 ha) on the eastern side of the main route into Wisbech.  It was located north of the B&Q store and the Peel Centre Retail Park, with housing and commercial opposite, bungalows to the north and a recently approved residential estate (approved under ref:  18/01464/RMM) to the rear.

 

The Committee was reminded that outline planning permission was previously sought for residential development around the existing dwelling under application ref:  19/01416/O, which was refused by the Committee in June 2020 and subsequently dismissed at appeal.  This application was a resubmission but sought to develop four dwellings within the area of garden land to the rear of the chalet bungalow (which was proposed to be retained) and not within the front garden.  All matters, with the exception of means of access, were reserved for future consideration.  An indicative site layout plan was submitted which showed the existing access upgraded into a cul-de-sac and a private driveway serving 4 plots to the rear of No.37.

 

The same access was approved under application ref: 19/00926/F and was presently being used for a temporary access route  for construction of the adjoining estate, as an alternative to accessing it via Hunters Rowe further along this road frontage to the north.

 

The site was located within the defined development area of Emneth and within Flood Zone 1 of the Council-adopted Strategic flood Risk Assessment.

 

The application had been referred to the Committee for determination because of the appeal history, the officer recommendation was contrary to the views of the Parish Council and at the request of the Planning Sifting Panel.

 

The Committee noted the key issues for consideration when determining the application, as set out in the report.

Click here to view a recording of this item on You Tube

 

The Principal Planner introduced the report and explained that the application site was situated to the east of Smeeth Road in Marshland St James, which was approximately 50m northeast of the Village Hall.

Terrington St Clement:  Waterlow Nursery, Waterlow Road:   Removal of condition 6 of planning permission 19/00743/O: Outline application for 2 storey dwelling in association with adjacent manufacturing and retail window business:  Jon Chambers Windows

 

Click here to view a recording of this item on You Tube.

 

The Principal Planner introduced the report and explained that the application site comprised an area of 0.19 ha of land with frontage onto the eastern side of Waterlow Road, Terrington St Clement. It was located approximately 300 m south of the junction with Hay Green Road and within an area classed as countryside in the development plan.  The site abuts an access and private drive which served Jon Chambers Windows and associated dwelling.

 

Outline permission was initially sought and approved by the Planning Committee at its meeting on 1 July 2019, contrary to officer recommendation, for a 4 bedroomed house in association with the adjacent manufacturing and retail window business.  Reserved matters were subsequently approved under application reference: 19/01463/RM – the development commenced, and foundations built.

 

Condition 6 attached to that initial outline permission effectively tied the occupancy of the dwelling to the business use.

 

This application now sought to remove that occupancy tie.

 

The application had been referred to the Committee at the request of Councillor Squire.

 

The Committee noted the key issues for consideration when determining the application, as set out in the report.

 

In accordance with the adopted public speaking protocol, Mr P Clarke (supporting) addressed the Committee in relation to the application.
