Updates: ·
The Applicant is stated as Barratt David
Wilson Homes. There are however, two Applicants as follows: Barratt David
Wilson Homes and Vistry Partnerships. ·
Consultee: Outdoor recreation - further
comments that do not raise new issues and suggest conditions which already
exist in similar form on the outline permission. ·
Consultee: Wessex Water – Support the JRC Foul Drainage
Statement (ref 1628w0006) 26th July 2022 which reflects the
current foul drainage strategy for the site. ·
Consultee: Environment
Agency – The Environment Agency has submitted a comment in response to the
submissions by the applicant to discharge some of the conditions attached to
the outline planning permission. The full response can be viewed on the website
under the planning application reference WD/D/17/000986. In summary the EA do
not recommend the discharge of conditions 38 and 39 and therefore do not
recommend the reserved matters application be approved at this time. They
advise that to progress things the applicant should provide any additional
supporting modelling that has been compiled along with a comprehensive
modelling report and FRA addendum. This response to the application for the
discharge of conditions is relevant in so far as officers are recommending
that delegated authority be granted to the Head of Planning and the Service
Manager for Development Management and Enforcement for the approval of the
reserved matters application, subject to the prior discharge of certain
conditions, including conditions 38 and 39.
At this stage, it is anticipated that the discharge of conditions 38
and 39 will be resolved though ongoing dialogue between officers, the EA and
the applicant. ·
Additional 1 letter of support from the
Symondsbury Estate - The
employment land is not sold to a developer, but is held as a development
opportunity for the Estate and will aim to bring about a high quality scheme
to ensure that the entrance to the town and Symondsbury from the west is
attractive, lasting and good for the community. The Estate has entered
into a binding contract with the residential developers for them to provide
the relevant infrastructure and liaise so that land and or buildings can be
delivered to market in line with planning consent. There are strong enquiries
for occupiers in the locality and wider afield and the Estate needs to take
time to assimilate and plan carefully. The Estate looks forward to
seeing the current detailed application come to fruition so in turn
commercially viable projects can mature and be delivered on the employment
land when the time is right. ·
Additional 1 letter of
objection which raises points that are already addressed in the committee
report. |

Informative: Informative:
Building Control The applicant
needs to be aware that concerns have been raised by Building Control
regarding fire brigade access, other options are available such as sprinklers
but these will need to be investigated by the applicant and any solution
would need to be agreed by the Fire Authority during consultation as part of
the Building Control application. Amendments/updates
to officer’s report: The heritage
section of the report is headed ‘Visual Amenity and Heritage Assets’ however
the heritage impacts, including on setting are wider than only visual impact
and the planning assessment goes beyond visual impacts. The Area of
Outstanding Natural Beauty section of the report sets out that the proposed
marquee and car park are not considered to meet the threshold of major development
in line with NPPF. It should also be noted that cumulatively the three
current planning applications (two before committee and one still under
consideration) are also not considered to meet the threshold of major
development given the scale of the development proposed cumulatively within
the context of Parnham House and its associated outbuildings and structures. |

in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The management plan shall include

including describing the construction and purpose and how this would be made
available for those visiting. The agreed management plan shall be implemented
following first occupation of the orchard rooms and shall continue in
perpetuity. Reason: In order to allow increased public access to
the Ice House to outweigh the less than substantial harm caused. 16. The development shall be carried out in accordance
with the submitted flood risk assessment (FRA) (Simpson tws, Issue 02 dated
14th March 2022) and the mitigation measures it details, including a minimum
finished floor level of 43.80m AOD for the Orchards Rooms and footbridge
and no temporary or permanent ground raising on existing land below the FRA's
estimated 1 in 100 year flood level of 43.20mAOD in order to ensure no loss
of existing flood storage. Thereafter, the measures detailed above shall be
retained and maintained thereafter throughout the lifetime of the
development. Reason: To reduce the risk of flooding to the proposed
development and future occupants and to prevent increasing flooding elsewhere
by ensuring that the floodplain storage is maintained. Additional Informative: Informative: Building Control The applicant needs to be aware that concerns have
been raised by Building Control regarding fire brigade access, other options
are available such as sprinklers but these will need to be investigated by the
applicant and any solution would need to be agreed by the Fire Authority
during consultation as part of the Building Control application. Amendments/updates to officer’s report: The heritage section of the report is headed ‘Visual
Amenity and Heritage Assets’ however the heritage impacts, including on
setting are wider than only visual impact and the planning assessment goes

report sets out that the proposed orchard rooms are not considered to meet
the threshold of major development in line with NPPF. It should also be noted
that cumulatively the three current planning applications (two before
committee and one still under consideration) are also not considered to meet
the threshold of major development given the scale of the development
proposed cumulatively within the context of Parnham House and its associated
outbuildings and structures. Additional representation received: An objection has
been received which is summarised as follows: An officer of the
Council notified the applicants in September 2021 that holiday lets in this
location would be contrary to policy and would be unlikely to be determined
favourably unless they were specifically part of the wider enabling
development project for the restoration of the house, which would enable the
proposals to be assessed from this exceptional circumstance. The officer
advised that the Council cannot permit enabling development wholesale or
piecemeal without ensuring the restoration of Parnham is legally agreed. The objector states that there is nothing in the
application under consideration suggesting that the holiday lets income
stream will be for the restoration
of Parnham house and considers as such, this application should be
refused. |
