Item 2 – 23/02707/OUT: Outline application for the erection of up to 350 dwellings (including affordable housing) together with mobility hub, access, parking, pedestrian and cycle routes, landscaping, green infrastructure and drainage. Site: Land At Sherfield Hill Farm Reading Road Church End Sherfield-on-loddon

The Committee considered the report set out on pages of 113 of 198 of the agenda with the further material set out on the addendum sheet and other matters discussed at the meeting.

The Committee discussed the proposed application which resulted in mixed views.

Some Members were concerned with localised flooding and the impact on local nature and the landscape. It was also suggested that the proposal did not provide any community facilities which would do little to create a sustainable community.

Other Members disagreed and referred to Condition 28 “No development shall commence on site, on each phase of development as agreed under condition 5 of this permission, until a detailed surface water drainage scheme for the site, based on the principles within the Flood Risk Assessment & Drainage Strategy Report ref: 22283_FRA01, has been submitted and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority” and “The development shall be implemented in full accordance with the approved detail and retained and maintained in accordance with those approved details for its lifetime”.

Condition 28 reassured some Members, and it was accepted that the detailed plans would be included in the reserved matters application.

It was acknowledged that the Highways Authority was satisfied with the findings of the Transport Assessment and considered that traffic distribution arising from the development along the A33 would be acceptable.

The proposal met the policy requirements of Policy CN1 of the Local Plan and the Housing SPD the development to incorporate 40% affordable housing, with 70% of these affordable dwellings for rent and 30% intermediate tenures.

Various Members believed that although there had been a few issues raised it was a tilted balance and there were no sufficient planning reasons to refuse the application.

RESOLVED that: The application be APPROVED subject to the applicant entering into a legal agreement (in accordance with the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010, Policies CN1, CN3, CN6, CN8, CN9, EM1 and EM4 of the Basingstoke and Deane Borough Local Plan 1996-2011 and Policies H3, D1, G1, T1, T2, T3 and CF2 of the Sherfield on Loddon Neighbourhood Plan 2011-2029 between the applicant and the Borough and County Councils to secure:

Failure to submit the Commencement Notice prior to the commencement of development will result in the loss of any exemptions claimed; the loss of any right to pay by instalments; and additional costs to you in the form of surcharges. You are advised to await acknowledgement of receipt of the Commencement Notice from the Charging Authority before commencing any works. Further details can be viewed at https://www.basingstoke.gov.uk/community-infrastructure-levy.

9. This Decision Notice must be read in conjunction with a Planning Obligation completed under the terms of Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended). You are advised to satisfy yourself that you have all the relevant documentation.

10. It is considered that the suggestion of 41 bird nest boxes in insufficient for a development of this size and it is reccomended that the development introduced bird boxes into the scheme in line with British Standard 42021:2022 and CIEEM guidance and as indicated in the response from Hampshire Swifts of at least one swift brick per dwelling.

11. Please note that any information in relation to the discharge of planning obligations contained within the completed Section 106 Agreement in relation to this planning permission should be submitted to the Planning Infrastructure Monitoring Officer, Planning Development Team, in accordance with, or ahead of, the timeframes contained therein.

12. In relation to condition 10:

Noise Survey Protocol

The acoustic testing shall seek to demonstrate compliance with the technical noise standards set out in condition 9. Test must be carried out prior to the occupation of any dwellings within the development.

The plots for testing shall be agreed with the Environmental Health team and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority in advance of the testing.

The acoustic testing will be undertaken in general accordance with the Association of Noise Consultants' publication "ANC Guidelines: Noise Measurement in Buildings: Part2: Noise from External Sources".

If the site is subject to a high level of construction noise during the daytime, then any affected periods shall be discounted from the analysis. In this event it would be possible to use historical noise graphs for the site to estimate the daytime noise levels in the absence of the construction noise to a reasonably high degree of accuracy.

Noise levels shall be monitored at a single location in each test room, with the measurement microphone positioned at a height of 1.2m above floor level and a distance at least 1.5m from any external wall/window.

The measuring equipment shall be "Type 1", as defined in BS EN 61672:2003.

The calibration of the measuring equipment shall be checked prior at the start of the survey using a hand-held calibrator compliant with BS EN 60942:2003 (IEC 60942:2003), Class 1. The calibration will be checked upon completion of the survey.

All measurement and calibration equipment shall hold current laboratory calibration certificates, traceable to national standards and measured at a UKAS approved laboratory.

The measurement instrumentation shall be configured to record the LAeq,T and LAmax,fast sound levels over consecutive 1 minute intervals. Contemporaneous measurements to a higher (1 second) resolution shall also be undertaken.

The equipment shall be installed for a period covering three weekday nights, to obtain representative information regarding any variation in night-time noise events.

Where noise measurements are undertaken in unfinished and unfurnished rooms, the reverberation time in the test room shall be measured in accordance with BS EN ISO 3382-2; "Acoustics. Measurement of room acoustic parameters. Reverberation time in ordinary rooms". The measurement results shall be adjusted accordingly to account for the change in reverberation time between the tested condition and future reverberation time within the room when furnished.

All internal measurements shall be undertaken with windows open.

Reporting

The report shall present the following information:

date and time of measurements;

location: i.e. name of building, floor, room name or number;

description of noise source(s);

details of all equipment used, i.e. manufacturer and model, serial numbers;

results of calibration checks;

measurement positions;

description of the room finishes, etc. at the time of testing;

measured reverberation times, if relevant, and any correction used to adjust measured noise levels;

noise monitoring results;

an assessment of the measurement data and compliance with the technical requirements of Condition 8.

recommendations for additional mitigation measures/repairs where the monitoring shows that the noise standards have not been complied with.
