The Development Management Manager reported that the application was approved in June 2019 but whilst preparing the S106 legal agreement it became apparent that the layout plan included land not in the ownership of the applicant and amended plans were submitted which excluded this area which resulted in reduction in the area of the proposed open space.  She noted that the JLDP have confirmed that the total amount of open space required from the proposed development should be 429m² and that whilst the new layout results in a shortfall of 29m².  Given the small area in question and that on site provision is being made as part of the development in accord with the provisions of Policy ISA 5, no objection is raised on this basis.   The Development Management Manager said that an amendment needs to be made as regards to the education contribution as part of the proposal due to the recent further consultation of the application.  She said that the Education Authority thought that the dwellings were to be 2 and 3 bedroom houses but some of the dwellings are one bedroomed accommodation.  Following reassessment the education contribution is now £12k.  The recommendation is of approval of the application subject to the completion of the S106 legal agreement.

Councillor K P Hughes proposed that the application be approved and Councillor Eric W Jones seconded the proposal.
