Decision details

The Application to Modify S106 Obligations, relevant to the S106 Agreement dated 22nd December 2020 for land south of Leigh Road, Wimborne Dorset. 

The application seeks to modify Schedule 1, Part 1, Clauses 2.3.2-2.3.6 and 2.3.8-2.3.9 which outline the provision deadlines for various elements of the Community Sports Facilities (CSF) area in relation to residential dwelling occupation numbers. 

The below table summarises the amendments sought. 

Summary of proposed modifications – as amended 

It is understood that negotiations with the Rugby Club in respect of the detailed design for the Clubhouse and associated infrastructure are ongoing, resulting in a request from the applicants to amend the delivery triggers for the various elements of the CSF. 

The rugby Club and Dorset Council Leisure Services raise no objection, and I note that Colehill Parish and WimborneTown Council raise no objection (3/12/2025) 

From the information available, I am satisfied that the revised timescales do not constitute a material reduction of benefit to the community under paragraph 151 (d) of the Constitution (Additional delegations to the Executive Director for Place Services) requiring referral to Planning Committee. The application can therefore be delegated. 

Para 151 

Note: 

It is important to ensure that Temporary security hoarding remains in position throughout construction in the interest of public safety and to avoid damage to the approved fencing. This will then need to be replaced at the same time as completion of the Clubhouse with the permanent, approved fencing - and these requirements should be reflected in the legal agreement.
