The Board considered a report of the Chief Executive, a copy of which, marked ‘Agenda Item 9’, is filed with these minutes.

In accordance with the procedures for making representations to the Board, Ian Sharpe (Leicestershire County Council) spoke as the applicant.

The Chief Executive reported that Sport England had originally objected to the application due to the loss of playing field land. The applicant had then proposed to increase the size of the replacement pitch. Sport England had been further consulted on this change, and it was anticipated that Sport England would withdraw their objection, but no response from Sport England had been received so far. The Chief Executive therefore advised that if planning permission was granted but the Sport England objection was not withdrawn, a referral to the Secretary of State would have to be made by the County Council. If Sport England withdrew their objection, then no referral to the Secretary of State would be required.

RESOLVED:

That the application be permitted, subject to the conditions as set out in the appendix to the report, subject to those conditions being amended as set out in the addendum report, subject to the application being referred to the Secretary of State and the Secretary of State deciding not to call in the application for his own determination.
