Planning Applications discussed at March Full Council:

S24/0314 – 79 Church Street – No objections

S24/0353 – 32 Eastgate – No objections

S24/0307 – 10 Bridge Street – Deeping St James Parish Council wish to object to this planning application. The Councillors consider that gravel placed at the entrance and exit to the property, (beside neighbouring properties 16 -18 Bridge Street and 30-32 Park Road), will be effected by the permanent noise intrusion.

S23/2377 - Deeping St James Parish Council wish to object to this planning application based on overdevelopment and is considered to be harmful to the character of the area, that is dominated by frontage only property. The site lies near a public footpath and so the new buildings will have a pronounced impact on views from that footpath. Further, the placing of a new access so close to the bend on a very narrow road, will result in safety issues.

S24/0357 – Deeping St James Parish Council were unable to view this tree as it was on private property and not visible from the street. Councillors agreed that the tree officer should view it and make an informed decision.

 

The S106 application for bus shelters along Linchfield Road outside the new development has been pushed forward by the Infrastructure Delivery Officer at SKDC.  The permit for this is to be completed by Cllr Smith and Asst Clerk once finances have been concluded.

 

The Willow Tree opposite Hereward Way has been felled and maintenance work has been completed on the Willow Tree in Bridge Street, DSJ in March 2024.

 

We have received notification from Lincolnshire County Council for Manor Way footway works, due to last approx. 12 weeks from 8 Apr 24 onwards.  This will mean road closures during this time.  This has been noted on FB and the Parish Council Website.

 

Two further Traffic Restriction Orders have been received; one for B1166 Church Street (between Eastgate and Hereward Way) for St Georges Day event 21/04/24 – 21/04/24 from 13:00 – 15:00 and a TRO for Cranmore Drove/Stowgate 15/04/24-15/04/24 for Carriageway Coring.  These have also been added to the Parish Council website and will be added on FB closer to the event time.

 

A meeting was held on 8 April 2024 for the AGM.  Pam Byrd remained as Chair, Gordon Smith as Deputy, David Shelton as Treasurer and Debbie Jones as Secretary.

The Neighbourhood Plan Team discussed the design code and the master plan.  Work continues with outside agencies and developers.

 

Councillor Dilks attended the meeting.

Councillors were sent an appendix advising of an email conversation held between the Assistant Clerk and Lincolnshire County Council Travel Projects Officer.  The Travel Projects Officer wishes to install a bus stop along Linchfield Road, near Thackers Way.  

Councillors discussed this noting that it would be beneficial.  

The positioning of the forecasted shelters are to be placed in an area that is not Parish Council land.  It was decided to send a response asking them in the first instance; to check with the Welland Deeping Internal Drainage Board due to the drain that runs along the verge.  To advise them of two new bus shelters currently being arranged to be situated outside Brewton Drive.  To question what style of structure they plan to put into place and who will manage the upkeep of this shelter; Deeping St James Parish Council will accept payment to maintain these shelters if offered.  Copies of bus shelters that are already used in the Parish are to be sent for their information and possible continuity.  

 

117.24 To receive an update regarding the Draft Planning Policy Consultation and links to online events. 

One event has already been held and another is still to take place on Thursday 11 April 2024, directed towards climate change.  Reminder notifications have been sent out to committee members.

 

A member of the Neighbourhood Plan Team has an interest in this topic and has offered to complete searches into ownerships along Bell Lane.  Reports are to be brought back when information has been found.

 

An appendix was sent out with the agenda for Councillors to view, surveying local Electric Charging Points.

It was discussed that there are limited spaces in Deeping St James Parish that could support the locations for Electric Vehicle Charging (EVC), due to space.  There are 2 EVC points scheduled for the Cross School.  Councillors discussed other spaces and decided to suggest that Lincolnshire County Council approached the local schools.  To be RECOMMENDED to Full Council to suggest approaching the local schools.

 

Documents received from Lincolnshire County Council Highways were shared prior to the meeting.  A request has been made to have the entrance to Darbyshire Close made as an area for no waiting at any time and further in the close, outside no. 8 and up to and including no.12 a proposed no waiting time of Monday – Friday 8am – 4pm, due to inconsiderate parking causing visibility and safety concerns.

Councillors discussed this and the impacts that it would have on the residents and local community.  Should these restrictions be put in place it could move the problem and affect other junctions of both Frognall and Hall Meadow Road.

Councillors cannot justify this proposal as it was agreed that the proposed no waiting time is already covered by the Highway Code legislation regarding parking within 25ft of a junction.  There is also a close proximity to a bus stop on Spalding Road and to two turnings, one at Hall Meadow Road and one at Frognall.  There is no reason to support the proposed no waiting Monday-Friday 8am-4pm, it does not exist on any other residential area.  Deeping St James Parish Council can suggest other areas that would benefit from the introduction of these restrictions and are willing to engage in sharing more worthy locations if requested.  RECOMMENDED to Full Council to object.

 

A survey was received by SKDC regarding the range of shops, services and facilities, employment opportunities and availability of public transport that are present within our parish.  Councillors agreed that this should be passed to the District Councillors to complete.  District Councillor Dilks acknowledged this and advised that he would share and complete with District Councillors Denniston and Ley.

 

South Kesteven District Council have sent a survey regarding the licensing of Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Licensing Policy for the county.  Councillors felt their experience and knowledge in this type of licencing was insufficient to comment.

 

 

S24/0404

Applicant: Mr Jon Shilling

Proposal: Non-material amendments in relation to Condition 3 (materials) and Condition 6 (electric charging point) of p/p S23/1064

Location: 42 Church Street Deeping St James Peterborough PE6 8HD

App Type: Non-material amendments

DSJPC –The electric charging point is to be placed in the front courtyard.  Even though this has been a discharge of conditions (S24/0405), by SKDC; Deeping St James Parish Council objects to this planning application due to the need for the charging cable that will cross the public footpath to charge the car will cause a public hindrance and will be a health and safety concern, considering it is within a short distance of a local public house, a mobility provision centre and a communal facility.  This practice cannot be considered as reasonable in all other aspects with regards to the standard 6 rules of planning conditions.

 

Application No: S24/0424
