Application Notes: | ||
The Town Council in principle is supportive of schemes for affordable housing but this must be a sustainable development. Members have concerns regarding accessibility on to the road network and there needs to be assurance from the developer regarding traffic numbers and likely impact on the highway given the extent of the development on to Ellesmere Road over recent years and the potential cumulative impact increased traffic has. It is a concern that there are no comments from SC Highways yet on this proposed development which is essential. Members question the inclusion of the small amount of Public Open Space which appears from the drawings provided only to be accessible over a private drive. This should not be dependent on an easement for grant of access. Members are also disappointed to see there are no EV charging points or solar panels on this site. |
