The Planning Officer advised Committee of the following amendments to Conditions within the published report:

Condition 3 (off-site highway improvement plans) verbally updated to include references to 2 additional plans: proposed pedestrian crossing islands on Abbott Road and the proposed crossings at the Ladybrook Road/Brick Kiln Lane Roundabout;

Condition 23 (permitted uses within the local centre) verbally updated to delete reference to a limit on the number of hot food takeaways as such a use would not be permitted by the description of development. Condition 23 also amended to include reference to the prohibition of the sale of comparison goods from the site (i.e. allowing the sale of convenience goods only);

Condition 35 (pedestrian and cycle strategy) verbally updated to include specific reference to the part of the land allocated under policy SUE1 but not included within the application site;

Condition 37 (formation of a private right of access between the application site and the land north of Wharmby Avenue allocated under policy SUE1 but not included within the application site) verbally updated. On the receipt if independent legal advice, the requirements of this condition are to be included as a clause within the Section 106 Agreement and the trigger for the approval of the scheme will be revised to prior to the commencement of any development. On that basis, this condition can be deleted.

Two additional conditions verbally added to the recommendation:

The mix of the open market housing to be required to comply with policy H3 (Housing density and mix); and
