relation to the application as follows:-

 

Consultation comments had been received from the Local Lead Flood Authority who confirmed that they had no objections to the proposal, and that any surface water management conditions would still require discharging.

 

Comments had also been received from the Council’s Tree Officer, who confirmed that they had no objections to the additional tree removal, as the trees in question were in a poor state of health.

 

An amendment was also proposed to Condition 1, to ensure that the planning permission was aligned with the decision date from the original application. The application, if granted, would need to commence by 31 July 2027.
