This application was brought to Committee as it was an Allocated Housing Site within the Part 2 Local Plan.

There were a number of late items including a submission from the Coal Authority withdrawing their objections to the scheme ad changes to conditions.

Robert Galij, applicant, Peter Housley, objecting, and Councillor Elizabeth Williamson, Ward Member made representation to the Committee prior to the general debate.

There was concern about the level of Section 106 contributions that were proposed for infrastructure and the use of private roads that were not to be adopted and whether the street lighting on these roads would be maintained by the local authority.  It was noted that the number of houses was over the allocation. There was a request for a pedestrian crossing.

It was proposed by Councillor R I Jackson and seconded by Councillor D D Pringle that the item be deferred to allow the applicant to address concerns regarding private roads, street lighting and over intensification.  On being put to the meeting the proposal was carried.

            RESOLVED that the application be deferred.
