19/85 Local Plan consultation discussion on comments back to SBC.
The council worked through the 6 questions raised by the document, which were circulated by Cllr Harris prior to the meeting
- Proposed development policies:
• Positive change to take more note of protected areas.
• Agree that utilities such as Thames Water under more pressure due to extra homes being built
• Marked led approach – need to ensure truly affordable and social housing in plans. - Sustainability, deliverability and community infrastructure needs of housing options.
• Ref Wroughton sites – rat run already through Chiseldon to Wroughton, Royal Wootton Bassett & Wichelstowe. J15 works will make this worse. A346 and M4 J15 already congested. Dayhouse Lane closing will add to this.
• Swindon in general lacks infrastructure. Could new build be added to Honda site. 370 hectares, and not all needed for economic growth. - Housing sites under consideration
• The council statement is the same as Dec 18. Cllr Sumner is leading the resident’s consultation on the site proposed at Badbury. - Employment Options
• A mix of small and large sites, with existing brownfield sites being used. - Employment sites
• No comment from CPC - Gypsy and Traveller sites
• Lawful and unlawful entry – vandalism, rubbish and anti-social behaviour
• Is the site cost effective for SBC?
• Hay Lane site is effective and looked after. Consider a similar permanent site at Honda site?
• Work with police and SBC more on enforcement and anti-social behaviour.
The Clerk was delegated the powers to write this report up and send to SBC.
Proposed by Cllr Rogers, seconded by Cllr Kearsey and all Cllrs in favour.
19/86 Planning. 29 Butts Road. S/HOU/19/1242
The council had no objections or comments to these plans.
A proposal of NO OBJECTION was raised by Cllr Rogers. Seconded by Cllr Bates and all Cllrs in favour.
19/87 Planning. West Farm Badbury Lane. S/LBC/19/1131
The council has no objection to the plans but wished to raise the following points:
The original slate roof design was preferred over the new metal roof proposal. Surface water drainage still a concern.
A proposal of NO OBJECTION with these comments was raised by Cllr Rawlings. Seconded by Cllr Bates and all Cllrs in favour.
19/88. Planning. Hillsborough, Marlborough Road. S/19/1186.
Cllr Jefferies left the room for this item and did not vote.
CPC had approved this application on a prior submission but residents have objected. SBC had also objected so the application has been re-submitted as revised.
The council had concerns over allowing 2 extra dwellings in this property would set a precedence which would then alter the landscape in regards to North Wessex Downs AONB. The neighbours have privacy issues and there is a concern over surface flooding and the trees on the site.
A proposal of OBJECTION with these comments was raised by Cllr Rawlings. Seconded by Cllr Bates and all Cllrs in favour.
Cllr Jefferies returns to the room
19/89. Planning. Ty Clyd, Turnball S/HOU/19/1025.
Plans were re-submitted to include CPC suggested amendments.
The skylight has been reduced in height and is now grey and not white
The wall height has been reduced.
The wall changed to stone slip with concrete behind
The extension has been changed to red brick.
A proposal of NO OBJECTION was raised by Cllr Rawlings. Seconded by Cllr Sunners and all Cllrs in favour.
19/90 Planning. 30 dwellings on land at New Road. S/OUT/18/0703
Significant objection from residents. Land was voted to exclude on SHELAA draft doc. Located in AONB with flood risk. Beyond Chiseldon settlement boundary. Large volumes of traffic on busy road. Traffic made worse by removing Ridgeway entrance/exit.
CPC disagree with bus comments from developer and recorded traffic levels. Unacceptable urban sprawl.
30 dwellings = at least 60 vehicles = 120 movements per day. The developers peak time traffic report didn’t include all peak times – only 1 hour AM and PM
The recommended SBC draft number of 3 parking spaces per dwelling should be included.
The Parish Council will therefor object based on the comments above.
However, if SBC do approve the application, then CPC make the following comments:
- Move exit from site to Ridgeway Road
- Developer to improve A346/New Road junction with an appropriate traffic measure. The cost was indicated as a barrier for SBC to do this work when it was last investigated. The developer should fund these improvements.
- Add an outside gym to playground facilities
- Pedestrian crossing across New Road
- Green space signed over to CPC
- Extra parking provision at green area for gym, move existing visitor parking to play area
- High speed broadband to all homes and elec charging points
- PC to maintain ground with 5 years of funds from developer
- No PC involvement with pond, or drainage works. Developer to make alternative arrangements for ownership and maintenance.
- Consider funding replacement hall on Recreation field.
A proposal of OBJECTION with the above points was raised by Cllr Kearsey. Seconded by Cllr Jefferies and all Cllrs in favour.
The residents at the meeting left at 21.09
19/91 Finance. AED proposal for Badbury
Anonymous donation of £1000 offered. Suggested CPC match donation with £1000 grant.
