RECOMMENDATION: Grant Listed Building Consent, subject to conditions.  

The Committee considered a report, previously circulated, which set out the Listed Building Consent application, the consultation, the site and its environment, planning history and the relevant planning policies and guidance.

The Committee was advised that only condition 1 of the conditions set out in the report applied to this application, and the rest should be disregarded. An additional condition should also be imposed to state that full implementation could only be undertaken once a contract had been signed.

RESOLVED

That, subject to the conditions as amended, including the additional condition that full implementation could only commence once the necessary contract had been signed, Listed Building Consent application HGY/2010/1889 be approved.

Conditions:

IMPLEMENTATION

1. The development hereby authorised must be begun not later than the expiration of 3 years from the date of this permission, failing which the permission shall be of no effect.

Reason: This condition is imposed by virtue of the provisions of the Planning & Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and to prevent the accumulation of unimplemented planning permissions.
