Minutes:

The Chair welcomed everyone to the meeting and advised that his first task would be to establish if the Members of the Local Review Body (LRB) felt they had sufficient information before them to come to a decision on the Review.

 

They all agreed that they had enough information and proceeded to determine the case.

 

Councillor Forrest expressed sympathy for the Applicants but advised that the planning policies which were material to this case were quite clear.

 

Councillor Kinniburgh commented that the main stumbling block for the Applicants appeared to be the legal agreement drawn up by the Council which, he pointed out, was not a planning matter.  He referred to the information before them and noted that Officers from Roads had met with them.  He said that he thought Roads had been quite lenient and had asked for the bare minimum in order to address road safety issues, which, he thought, was because they had recognised the predicament the Applicants were in.

 

Councillor Forrest referred to the photographs provided and said that she thought it would not take much to get the parking and turning area up to the standard that was required.

 

Councillor MacMillan agreed with the comments made and pointed out that it was important to abide by the terms of the legal agreement, although that was not a planning consideration in any event.

 

Decision

 

Having considered the merits of the case De Novo, the Argyll and Bute Local Review Body unanimously agreed not to delete Condition 2 of Planning Permission reference 18/01189/PP on the basis that there were no material considerations that would support deletion of the Condition.
