Approved by 10 votes to 1
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the housing and affordable homes benefits outweighed the limited employment-land conflict.
- Residents objected over construction impacts, traffic, parking and the proposed Parkhurst Avenue entrance.
- The committee voted 10–1 to grant permission, subject to conditions and a legal agreement.
