With reference to the tabled supplementary, Neil McClellan Area Planning Manager responded to the following issues raised following a visit to the site.
S106 He clarified that as the redevelopment would be used solely for a community use and temporary living quarters for priests, it did not require any financial or infrastructure contributions and therefore would not be subject to a legal agreement.
Waste from Cooking Existing waste storage and collection would be from the service road to the north. A condition had been included requiring further details of waste storage to be approved prior to the commencement of work.
Shoe Storage The proposal included a dedicated shoe storage room attached to the side of the Temple.
Noise from Extract Equipment There had been no recent approval of extract equipment within the vicinity of the site and that any new equipment would require planning permission and would be subject to standard noise conditions. Although this matter had been referred to Environmental Health for further investigation, he recommended that an additional condition be included requiring the approval of details of any mechanical ventilation or extraction systems required by the scheme.
He added that in response to a legal concerns condition 6 on public address system had been re-worded to be more precise and enforceable as set out in the tabled supplementary report.
Mr Sivaratnum the applicant in responding to concerns expressed by Councillor Mitchell-Murray about potential cooking smells and parking congestion, stated that the proposed development would not involve large scale cooking which would have required an extractor. He added that weddings would not take place at the temple. Mr Sivaratnum requested members to extend the hours of operation to 22:00 hours (summer) and 21:00 hours (winter).
Steve Weeks, the Head of Area Planning, responded to Members queries about the scope to relax the operation hours by stressing that this was an issue that would better be assessed when the new facility had been operating for a while.
During discussions Members felt it would be unfair on the local residents to suddenly agree an extension to the existing hours of operation.
