RESOLVED
1)
That the proposed protocol at the revised appendix be approved and
that the Head of Housing and Environment Services be authorised,
following consultation with the Cabinet Member for Housing and
Planning, to give the Council’s consent to the development of
amenity sites, excluding garage sites, as she considers satisfies
the criteria in the protocol, unless there are significant
objections from the ward member or parish council.
2)
That authorisation for the Council to enter into a Deed of Release
for each site and any other related documents is delegated to the
Head of Housing and Environment Services without referral back to
Cabinet, following the grant of planning permission for the
consented proposal.
3) That the Council forgoes making a charge for the release of the covenant, where warranted by the circumstances of the individual case and where the land is to be developed for affordable rented housing.
