            That planning permission be granted subject to the applicant entering into a Section 106 Agreement or offering a unilateral undertaking to rescind the existing extant consents relating to the site, and subject to the conditions detailed in the report of the Chief Officer (Planning and Environment).

If the obligation pursuant to Section 106 of the Town & Country Planning Act 1990 is not completed within three months of the date of the committee resolution, the Chief Officer (Planning and Environment) be given delegated authority to REFUSE the application. 

The Committee considered the report of the Chief Officer (Planning and Environment) in respect of this application.  The usual consultations had been undertaken and the responses received detailed in the report.  Additional comments received since the preparation of the report were circulated at the meeting.   

                        The officer detailed the background to the report and advised that the late observations included an amendment to the report at paragraph 2.03 and also comments from Economic Regeneration.  Paragraph 6.01 referred to Policy T4 but the officer advised that this should read T5.  The main issues in relation to this application were the principle of development in this location having regard to the requirements of policy T5 of the Flintshire Unitary Development Plan and the impact of the proposals upon the highway; the report provided details of both issues considered in the determination of the application.  The officer advised that the proposal was acceptable to Highways subject to the imposition of a condition requiring the completion of parking and turning facilities in accordance with details to be submitted and agreed.            

            Councillor Chris Bithell proposed the recommendation for approval which was duly seconded.  He commented on the comprehensive report and said that the proposals which would improve the site overall were worthy of support. 

            RESOLVED:
