Site has full planning permission for 79 dwellings (HS/FA/13/00377) subject to planning obligation for financial contribution towards off-site affordable housing.

It is questionable whether it is appropriate to include this site as a housing 'allocation' as it is now a housing 'commitment' given that it has extant permission. If site remains allocated, refer to extant permission in paragraph 6.268 as this comprises a material consideration in determining any subsequent planning application.

Amend Policy part (i) to refer to an off-site financial affordable housing contribution, and delete parts (ii) and (v) as these are not requirements of the extant planning permission.
