Application Notes:
By way of background Councillor Mosley reported on the previous application which was refused on overdevelopment, resident impact, traffic and building impact in the vicinity. This revised application allays many of the concerns of residents with significantly more on-site parking, retained walled garden and recreational open space, demolition of all buildings other than those listed and the modern gymnasium. Members discussed the development of 120 student accommodation units and the need ultimately to ensuire that there was a Student Management Plan prohibiting students bringing a car. The Town Council welcomes the amendments to the application for this site and would wish to reserve their comments until full details are made available.
