facilities, residential dwellings, open space, landscaping
and ancillary infrastructure at land to the south of
Hatfield Road forming part of the Maltings.
Members agreed that unless a realistic approach is
taken to some changes in the masterplan the site will
remain in its current unfinished state. Concern was
expressed at the potential impact on the Town Centre
from out of town retail provision despite the Retail
Assessment. Councillor S.J. Goodfellow objected to
the plans on this specific issue.
RESOLVED recommend approval subject to:
the concerns raised by the Police being
satisfactorily addressed

consulted on any changes to the current

Councillors believe that the clause in the S.106
Agreement requiring the community buildings,

before any further residential dwellings are built
is non-negotiable and must be retained in any
future S.106 Agreement.
