PLANNING COMMITTEE AGENDA - Hartlepool Borough Council

4.1
Other matters
14.14 Members may be aware that the shopping parade has suffered from a number
of incidents of anti social behaviour. Cleveland Police’s Burglary and Architectural
Liaison Officer has indicated that the proposed surgery may be at risk from burglary
and criminal damage and as such has recommended a number of security measure
to be incorporated in to the design of the structures to prevent such issues occurring.
Such details can and will be agreed by way of planning condition.
Conclusion
In conclusion it is considered that the PCT have demonstrated and used best
endeavours to establish a GP surgery in this locality. In light of this it is considered
that the use of an area of grassed open space for a temporary period is acceptable
in these circumstances subject to appropriate planning conditions.
As the final responses of the Head of Traffic and Transportation and Public
Protection area awaited it is not considered appropriate to create a comprehensive
list of planning conditions at this stage. Instead, it is requested that the final decision
is delegated to the Development Control Manager in consultation with the Chair of
the Planning Committee. Technically as a departure and because the land is council
owned this application will have to be advertised as such and referred to GONE
Recommendation:- Minded to Approve subject to appropriate conditions and no
objections from outstanding publicity and GONE, but the final decision be delegated
to the Development Control Manager in consultation with the Chair of the
Committee.
