The Committee considered the report of the Chief Planning Officer that recommended that the above application for the erection of 8 dwellinghouses following the demolition of the former Blundell Arms public house be approved subject to the conditions and for the reasons stated or referred to in the report and Late Representations.

Prior to consideration of the item the Committee received a petition from Mr.McCormick, on behalf of objectors to the proposed development and a response from Mr.Anderson, the applicant’s agent.

RESOLVED:

That the recommendation be deferred to enable officers to consider the summary viability information provided by the applicant in the late representations, and if necessary, request a full viability assessment in order to be satisfied whether or not the building can be converted as an alternative to demolition.
