The application sought to vary the approved plans for up to 101 homes, including updated house types, layouts, landscaping and highway-related changes.

Since that approval and through the various stages of finalising the design and layout of the development, there have been a series of amendments made. These have included changes to the developer’s house types, amendments to the scheme design to respond to the technical highways input via the Section 38 highways process and various practical changes to refine the final layout.”

“Tatton driveway positions corrected • Shared driveways amended • Plots 1 – 4 changed to Adlington and adjoined to plots 5/6 • Substation repositioned (internal) • Grass verges introduced adjacent plots 59, 76 & 87 • Grass verges removed from plots 17-28, 82-83 & 107 • Elements of the approved landscaping shown • Gates and stairs repositioned (plots 17-19, 30, 31) • Tactile paving removed to suit S38 requirements • House types updated to V4 with minor internal changes •…”

Officer report

Main planning effects

Officers considered that the changes would maintain housing provision, protect residential amenity and highway safety, and provide 30% affordable housing across the wider development.

“Policy H4 seeks to maximise the delivery of affordable homes. Across this site and the associated development of 14 houses (see description) there is the provision of 30% affordable housing – being 35no, with a range of one bedroom through to three bedroom houses. The Council’s Affordable Housing Officer has been consulted extensively through the lifetime of the application.”

Officer report

Consultation responses

Highways and the affordable housing officer raised no objections after consultation.

“Site notice Expiry date for comments: 14/10/2025 Neighbour letters Expiry date for comments: 14/10/2025 Press Notice Expiry date for comments: 14/10/2025”

“Extensive consultation has been undertaken with the Council’s Affordable Housing Officer.”

Officer report

Public comments

Three comments raised concerns about notification, the public footpath, traffic congestion and woodland used by animals.

“One refers to the some residents addresses not being notified directly through neighbour letters about the proposal. • One references the existing public footpath across the site being removed, leading to poor access to the new pedestrian crossing and queries the statutory permission for this. • One objects to the proposal on grounds of increased traffic congestion on the A57 and the destruction of woodland used by animals (deer, foxes, badgers)”

Officer report

The committee’s decision

The committee granted planning permission as set out in the report, with delegated authority for limited wording changes before the decision was issued.

“That planning permission be granted as set out in the report; and…”

“That in the event of any changes being needed to the wording of the Committee’s decision (such as to delete, vary or add conditions/informatives/planning obligations or reasons for approval/refusal) prior to the decision being issued, the Head of Development Services be delegated authority to do so in consultation with the Chair of the Committee, provided that the changes do not exceed the substantive nature of the Committee’s decision.”
