The council considers that the problem could be alleviated by a significant reduction in the number of apartments being proposed.

16/00280/TCA - 51 High Street Olney MK46 4EB Notification of intention to fell 1 x Laburnum RESOLVED: That the council has no comments to make.
p.
16/00312/FUL - Land To The Rear of 90 East Street Olney Erection of 14 dwellings, including 4x 2 bed, 6x 3 bed, 1x 4 bed and 3x 5 bed dwellings, with parking, garaging, landscaping and access road including off site highway works to East Street RESOLVED: The council supports the development in principle. However, we are conscious of the additional traffic that this would create in an area that already has traffic and parking issues, particularly at weekends caused by sporting activity. Highway mitigation measures should be considered as a planning obligation. We would also draw attention to the potential impact, to plot 5 in particular, from noise arising from the normal activities of the adjacent rugby club house. The council feels that the application should also be assessed against policies ONP6 to ONP9 in the draft Olney Neighbourhood Plan, relating to Infill Sites and Windfall Sites, Affordable Homes, Housing Type and Design, and Communications Infrastructure.
