review of 21/00993/PPP

There had been circulated copies of a request from Mr Christopher Wilson c/o Ferguson Planning, 54 Island Street, Galashiels to review the decision to refuse the planning application for the erection of a dwellinghouse on Plot 2 at Land North of Belses Cottage, Jedburgh.  The supporting papers included the Notice of Review (including the Decision Notice and Officer’s Report); Papers referred to in the Officer’s report; additional information; consultation replies; objection comments and list of policies.  The Planning Advisor drew attention to information, in the form of a Transport Technical Note, which had been submitted with the Notice of Review documentation but which had not been before the Appointed Planning Officer at the time of determination.  Members agreed that the information was new but considered that it met the Section 43B test, was material to the determination of the Review and could be considered. However, they also agreed that the Transport Technical Note could not be considered without affording the Roads Officer and Planning Officer an opportunity of making representations on this new information.
