Furthermore, the application would not be detrimental to residential amenity or highway safety. The application is, therefore, deemed to comply with policies A, 2, 6, 10 and 10 of the Aligned Core Strategy (2014); policies 32, 35, 49, 50, 53, and 61 of the Local Planning Document (2018) and guidance within the National Planning Policy Framework (notably chapters 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, and 12).

The Borough Council has worked positively and proactively with the applicant in accordance with paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework. During the processing of the application there was no problems for which the Local Planning Authority had to seek a solution in relation to this application.

Additionally, your attention is drawn to the following:-Sufficient electric supply should be provided for the stalls. The trees in the area and the in situ seating area should be protected when installing the market stalls to prevent damage. Access must be allowed from High Street into the precinct for shop deliveries, emergency vehicles and disable blue badge holders. As a public right of way it should not be blocked - unless an alternative route is arranged with Nottinghamshire County Council highways. The flood relief water storage tank under the Eagles Square shall remain accessible at all times.  The applicant is advised that all planning permissions granted on or 16th October 2015 may be subject to the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). Full details of CIL are available on the Council's website. The proposed development has been assessed and it is the Council's view that CIL is not payable on the development given that there is no net additional increase of floorspace as a result of the development.
