“Redlees Park had been selected as the recipient of the £4,000 funding for play facilities as it was closest. A member advised that the Unwin Road playground was closer and needed the investment more, as Redlees Park had been recently renovated. [name withheld] advised that the funding could be reviewed if necessary. An earlier application was confirmed as having been viability tested and given a 0% affordable housing requirement.”

“Cllr Craig Owen agreed with earlier points and acknowledged the positives of the proposal, ie a lot of new homes on underutilised land, but expressed concerns about the harm to Meadowbrook Court as well as insufficient amenities and parking stress. He could not see why the neighbouring site was 100% affordable housing (AH) and this was not.”

“Cllr Bowring moved approval of the officer’s recommendations, pending negotiation of funding for amenities as suggested by Cllr Louki and also the possibility of investing in the children’s play areas in Unwin Road rather than Redlees Park. Cllr Adesh Farmahan second the motion. Members voted by a majority to approve the recommendations.”
