The Planning Committee, acting as the determining body, approved the application. The case officer, Miss Laura Davy, had recommended approval, and the decision was signed off by Mr Robert Mark Hill-Venning. One condition was attached to the permission, though the detail of that condition is not set out in the available evidence.
