2.26.3 The key issues in the determination of this application are therefore
whether the proposals overcome the previous reasons for refusal in
terms of the principle of development, in particular in terms of housing
numbers having had regard to the context of the release of the Phase 2
sites within the Local Plan, whether the proposals enable
comprehensive development of the Phase 2 site and provides a
deliverable mechanism for the provision of improved primary school
facilities.

application overcomes the previous reasons for refusal and as such is
acceptable in principle.

the development on the wider highways network, the environmental
impacts of the scheme in terms of flood / drainage, ecology /
biodiversity, land contamination, energy efficiency and cumulative
impact the proposals are considered acceptable in accordance with
policy.
2.26.6 The proposals would also contribute to the general housing provision
within the District including the provision for affordable housing and
would provide financial contributions towards the provision of
recreational open space, education, waste and recycling facilities and
would secure a travel plan.

date and all other material planning considerations, it is considered that
the proposed development is acceptable in principle and accords with
