Centre in Raylei to cater for youngsters to did not attend the
Clubs provided in school premises. The proposed Club would also

from donations and half by loan. The Committee also had before them
the appended report of the Management Team on the proposal, together
with the observations (also appended) ci' the County Education Officer
who suggested that the project would involve duplication of existing
services.
Members congratulated Councillor Warner on the production of the
report, but overall it was felt tat this service was a County
responsibility and that they should deal with the matter because
S
W
if the District Council assisted with the project, Rochford
ratepayers would in effect be paying twice. Also the projeot had
to be weined ainat the competing claims on the Council' s resources
of projects which were Rochford' s responsibility. There was also a
full discussion questioning the need for the scheme and the likelihood
of
it achieving its objectives. The CczQmittee concluded that the
project was not a matter that the District Council should itself
pursue.
That the Council be recommended aocordingly. (915)

a) Loans Pool Transactions
Short-tern rates in the mantket have up to 6th July 1981, remained
relatively constant, with long-tern rates for the same period having
been relatively expensive. However, Nembers will be aware of the
Govenmient action on 6th July, 1981 of lending to the Discount Houses
at rates above LL.R. and this has resulted in a matted increase in
rates with M.L.R. being scaie'what ineffective. The current hia
rates have resulted
borrowing remaining short—tern as no pressures

ROil) SWREPF?S BONUS (Minute is)
In accordance with the recommendation of the Panel at the last Meeting
the Chief Executive had investigated the introduction of an appropriate
average bonus payment in respect of Road Sweepers. It was suggested
that a consolidated bonus based on 30% of the manual sweepers basic
rate of pay would be appropriate and would result in a bonus of £18 per
week.
It was suggested by the Work Side that consideration might be given
to the implementation of this arrangement from the date of oiencement

of the now consolidated bonus arrangements. The Council Side
pointed out however that as the Road. Sweepers had not previously
received any bonus they had not forned part of the original
negotiations and there was therefore no reason why this payment
should be tied to that arrangement. Reference was also made to
the present severe CovernnEnt restrict ions on Local .A2lthority

as a most cogent synopsis of the history, the considerations and
the implications of proposals for an airport at Maplin. It was
necessary for the Council to make clear its position so that the
Public Inquiry into the Stansted proposal could. consider
alternative sites and the Inspector for that Inquiry had. requested
the Council to supply such details.
There followed an infornative debate during tich Members refrained
from mere rehearsal of old arguments but concentrated on the basic
policy question as to tether an airport at Maplin would be for or
against the best interests of the District. Althoui. the Council
had consistently supported sane forn of developnent at Maplin,
believing that this would help correct the imbalance between
ccnmercial and. residential develorment, it had never expressed
support for an airport at Maplin and the debate confined that this
remained the policy of the Council.

of Local Government Services, Price Watertiouse and
Tom Walls, Director
Company, the
Council's
approved Auditors to&etber with Mr. Clive Sadler and Mr. BSchard Horton
also of that Company.
lb. Walls explained that the purpose of his visit was to explain briefly
the proposed arrangements for carrying out the annual audit of the Council' a
accounts and the emphasis upon counercialism and value for money In dealing
with the Council's affairs.
In addition to the approved audit function reference was made to the high
level of expertise and coneultancy available to the Council both in the
auditing and management services
fields.
particularly to the annual audit Mr. Walls explained that the first
procedure would be for Richard Horton to first meet with Senior Officers of
each Directorate individually in order to familiarise himself with the
Authority and to gain some indication as to possible problem areas • From the
information obtained in this way a strategia plan would be prepared for
Referring
dealing with the audit. In the first year of the audit all Departments would
be examined in detail including the Coun's internal audit arrangements and
computer auditing.
Members felt that it would be useful for Price Waterhouse to report to the
Audit Panel on a personal basis aimuafly although it might be preferable to
meet more often in the first year of the audit, but this would be left to the
Chief Executive to decide with the Auditors.

DISCOUNT FOR PROMPT PAYMENT OP RATES
5.

of 2% was reasonable.

CAR AND TELEPHONE AnOWANCES
6.
The Panel received and considered the report of the Director of Finance
upon staff in receipt of essential car user and telephone allowances as
requested by the District Auditor in his report upon the 1979/SO accounts.
The Panel agreed that the level of officers in receipt of the allowances
was very reasonable and reflected the responsible attitude of Directors
in the allocation of the allowances •
The
stun involved
was ell for the considerable increase an the level of service available
to the Council as a result of the payment of these allowances. The Chief
Executive quoted several exaDaples of cases where officers had been called
upon
outside of nornal office hours.
The Director of Pinance referred to a suggestion made by the District
Auditor that a periodic check should be made of official calls made by
officers in receipt of telephone allowance to satisfy themselves that the

level of reimbursement
for
calls was reasonable.

GENTRAL ESTABLISHMENT CHA1S
7.
In
considering the report
of the Director of Finance upon central establishment
charges the Panel were advised of the recent ).nagement Team consideration of
this nattar where the following points bad been raised:—
(1) That 1% allocations of time were unrealistic and that minimum allocations
in the future shauld be 5%,
(2) In assessing allocation of accoimnodation the Director of Finance would,
in future, have regard to usable areas of acconinodation only, exctding
corridors, stairs etc •
and
would not assess aocoxnodation charges on
a per capita basis.
(3) Chief Officers and their Secretaries would be required to allocate
their tine against individual expenditure heads rather than on a pro
rata basis as at present.
(4) Additional headings should be included within the charges to cover
planning appeals and inquiries arid allocation of officers time to
Ocanmittee expenses and Members' queries.
tmbers of the Panel expressed considerable interest in the allocations
which they found to be extremely useful particularly when used in conjunction
with their annual estinntes.
The Panel were advised, that the Directors themselves had found this break-
down of charges to be of considerable benefit in reviewing the works of their
own staff and in future these details will be submitted to the W.nagement
000628
a

Team before considering the estimates for the forthcoming year, as they
will be invaluable to Directors in preparing their estimate provisions.
In view of the considerable amount of infonaation contained within the

should

the
included upon the Agenda
be
for
the next three or four Meetings

rebuild the dwelling. M appeal against refusal was dismissed by
the Seoretazy of State in July 1980. Officers had. made considerable
efforts to try to reach a mutually acceptable form of extension to
provide extra aooond.ation inclu/I 1 ng bathroom and toilet facilities
whilst keeping within the limits considered acceptable by the
Depaxtnent of the xvironment Inspector.
Whilst negotiations were being carried out, the applicant ccmnenced
a side extension arguing that it was Permitted Develoçmient but had
refused entry to the officers involved to check external dimensions
to ascertain the aootracy of this statement.

flntnR Servigep 49cxm3ittee
Resolved
reasons:I•
The
(1) That the application be refused for the foflowing
site is outside the areas allocated for residential
developnent in the County Development Plan and, furthermore, it
forms part of the approved Ebctended Metropolitan Green Belt. The
written statement a pacying the County Development Plan indicates
that in order to achieve the purposes of the Thct ended Metropolitan
Green Belt, it is essential to retain and protect the existing
rural character of the area so allocated and that new buildings and
uses will only be pernittod outside existing settlements in the
most exceptional circumstances and when essential for agricultural
or allied purposes. The Written Statent also states that
replacement of a dye] Ung will not ordinarily be permitted.
2. In the opinion of the local planning authority, the proposed
development is not consistent with rteMed. Metropolitan Green Belt
polioy and the accumulative effeot of the development together with
previous extensions and alterations would be tantamount to a
replacement of the dwelling.
4
3. The development would tend to consolidate sporadic development
and create an urban street scene departing rim the predcnninantly
rural character of the 1 iiii ted area of countryside situate between
Huflbridge and Rayleigi.
4. The local plming authority consider that the proposal oonflicts
with the recent appeal decision in respect of planrlrig application
ROC/761/79, Depaatient of the v'iroznnent reference
t/.APP/521 8/A179/1 2504/89 when the Department of the svironment
Inspector oonsidered that whilst wodest inprovements, particularly
with regard to the kStohen back addition, would be reasonable, the
substantial rebuilding and extension of aoooodation would be
unacceptable having regard to Rxtended. Metropolitan Green Belt
policy.
5. If the proposal was permitted it would be difficult for the local
planning authority to resist similar proposals within "plotland"
areas contrary to the approved Ebctended Metropolitan Green Belt
policy.
(2) The Director of Legal Services be authorised to take
all necessary action, inciWling the service of Notices and action
in the Courts, to secure the remedflng of the breach of planning
control now reported.

Size: Q.78m x O..S6m (2ft7jns. x lft,,lOins.)
D.T.P. — REFUSE PERMISSION FOR THE FOLLOWING REASON:
The proposed illuminated sign would form a dominant and visually obtrusive
feature at this point in the street scene and if allowed would detract
from the character and appearance of the Rayleigh Conservation M'ea.
NOTE: The Rayleigh Civic Society object as the proposed sign is considered
to be unnecessary, would lead to an untidy appearance and would spoil the
existing balanced frontage.

The fascia of the canopy shall not be illuminated without the priqr

This permission conveys no approval to the resiting or replacement
or other alteration to the existing pylon advertisement sign showr1
on the submitted drawings.
This petrol filling and service station is situated on north side
of London Road and is directly opposite a similar establishment on the
south side. Both service stations are called "The Grange' and operate under
the same proprietors.
NOTE:
In 1977 planning permission was granted for a virtually identical canopy
on the establishment on the south side and there is no planning objection
to a similar canopy on the application site subject to the conditions 9uggest—
ed. Other alterations to the forecourt structures and kiosk are of a minor
nature necessary to convert the business to a self—service type.

Paws Heath Road, Rayleigh.
Mr. & Mrs. R. Downs, do Mr. CF. Buggies, ElBA.,
Colas Farm, Boreham Road, Great Leighs Cheimsford.
D.T.P. — REFUSE PERMISSION FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1.
The site is of insufficient size to satisfactorily accommodate two
horses and two loose boxes and would result in its over use to the
detriment of the appearance of the site and local amenities. A precedent
would be set for similar development which would materially change
and erode 'the appearance and be detrimental to the amenities f the
local area.
2.
The access to the site via Paws Heath Road would create an unacceptable
traffic hazard.
3.
The site is considered to be poorly located for the erection of loose
boxes in that this would inevitably lead to the use of the adjacent
narrow road for horse riding which would be detrimental to highway
safety.

as defined in Section 290(1) of the Town & Country Planning Act 1971

4OTE: Th caravan is at present sited at Whitehouse Farm, Canewdon, where
in accordance with two successive teniporary planning permissions (ROC/565/78
and P00/665/78/1) it has been used since July, 1978 to provide accommodation
for an agricultural student. These students are required to obtain at
least one year's practical experience in agriculture in pursuance of their
studies for the 0.N.D. at Writtle College. The permission for the caravan
at Whitehouse Farm expired on 30th April, 1981 and instead of seeking penn—
ission for a renewal for a further period, the applicant wishes to move
the caravan to his nearby Scotts Hall Pant in order that an agricultural
student is on hand day arid night to carry on his duties as relief pig man
on that farm. The student will only need to occupy the caravan for 5 to

and since this application is primarily a transfer
of the temporary accommodation from one of the applicant's farms to another.
and that there are no proposals to renew the previous permission, there
are no objections to this application. Since, however, the location is
different, I would suggest that the permission is granted for a period

the prior consent in writing of the local planning authority.

Notwithstanding
the details shown on the submitted drawings, the proposed
dwelling shall be sited as indicated in red on the plan returned herewith.
NOTE: The site adjoins public open space to the north and a house No. 36
The Walk to the søuth, and extends 76 metres (25Oft.) from The Walk. At
present a bungalow exists on the site, situated more or less centrally,
with the result that the front windows are about 12 metres (4Qft.) from
the rear windows of No. 36 The Walk.
It is proposed to demolish the bunga1o and erect a house alongside No.
36 The Walk, but the submitted plans indicate that the new dwelling would
be set back from the front of No. 36 The Walk by about 4.5 metres (l5ft.9irisj.
Since No. 36 The Walk has several 'wirkows in the flank wall, some overloqking
could occur between those windows, (one of which is a secondary bedroom
window) and the front windows of the new dwelling. The occupier of No.
36 The Walk is concerned over the possibility of such overlooking. This
problem would not occur if the new dwelling was positioned so that the
rear walls of both proprHes are in the same plane and the suggested condition
would ensure that the dwelling is so sited.

the retention of this garage facility is acceptable, it is essential that
space is reserved on the site for a garage or garage space, and a further
condition is imposed to ensure that the land between the new house and

NOTE. The existing dwelhng on the site is a bungalow and a scheme to extend
and alter the existing property into a house was refused in January, 1980
(ROC/l053/79). The principal objection was the impact the extended property
would have on the adjoining bungalow No. 7 Western Road, which has large
windows to living rooms facing the site. The applicants appealed against
this decision but the Inspector supported the Council's refusal and dismissed
the appeal.
Tts new application seeks to overcome the previous objections by demolishing
the existing bungalow and building a com$leteIy new dWdlling sited away'
from the dividing boundary with No. 7 Western Road.
In the refused scheme a two storey element of the building would have been
im (Sft.3ins.) from the boundary with the remainiflg section 3.8m (l2ft.6ins.)
In the new scheriie the dwelling is sited 7.25m (23ft.lOins.) from the side
boundary. An attached double garage projects into this space to within
l.5m (sft.) of the boundary but this is single storey with a hipped roof.
By resorting to a redevelopment of the site resiting of the dwelling has
been achieved to protect the outlook of No. 7 Western Road. In my opiMion
the new scheme overcomes the previous objections.

NOTE: The applicant has recently acquired the whole of this large site
including the Sprinklers Garden Centre.
The proposed use is at precent in operation between two extensive ranges
of glasshouses near the southern boundary of the site with concrete moulding
taking place in the existing water tower and a corrugated iron shed and
with finished products stored in part of the existing din—used glass houses.
The applicant now seeks to regularise the use of the site and to erect
a covered area for the hand1ng and storage of finished products which
include paving slabs, decorative screening together with concrete ornamental
mouldings and statues.
The applicant has stated in writing that the concrete products will only
be retailed by the existing garden centre.
The Great Wakering Parish Council are of the opinion that 'the application
should be refused as it contravenes the Green Belt policy which bans such
industry other than for agriculture".
Whilst the site does lie in the Extended Green Belt the use is related
to the existing garden centre, is well screened with existing planting
along its boundaries and will provide employment for up to ten people.
Members may consider the necessity for a legal agreement binding the applicant

High Street, Rayleigh.
Floor Area: l42sq.m. (l,529sq.ft.)
D.T.P. — REFUSE PERMISSION FOR TUE FOLLOWING REASON:—
No provision for car parking has been made within the site boundaries
and therefore this could lead to the further congestion of ad3acent
highways.
NOTES The premises in question are vacant. The present authorised use is
as a shop with residential accommodation both at ground and first floor
levels. The shop was used as a hairdressers and this appears to be the
last recorded use of the shop part of the premises. At some time a bank
occupied part of the ground floor accommodation but this use has long since
ceased.
The application has been made by a company which deals with Telex relay,
passing Telex messages all over the world. They are expanding and therefore
need to move from their present accommodation in Rayleigh High Street.
Their service is a 24 hour one and therefore their staff of 16 work o
a shift basis.
No on—site car parking is to be provided and the applicant intends to use
Bramerton Road for this function. This road is unmade and does already
get quite congested with parked vehicles.

Council who may offer accommodation for hire but not for the purposes
of a dance hall, discotheque, wedding receptions and similar parties,
without the consent of the local planning authority.

l.Sm (Gft.) high close boarded, or other approved fencing shall be

All open areas of the site and the accessway to Main Road shall be
surfaqed, drained ad lit before the tui1çIing, is first used, in acçordance
with a scheme the details of which shall have been approved by the
local planning authority.
NOTE: In support of the application the IInwkweli Parish Council has said
that there is no intention to make any structural changes and that the
building will be used as an administrative centre for the Parish Council
and a meeting place for local or'ganisstions and associations. It will not
be used for private parties, wedding receptions or any function of a similar
nature.
The Parish Council propose to acquire the building and land comprising
approximately YOft. of frontage to a depth of lOsft. Vehicular access is
that existing and subject to the surfacing of 'the rear of the site some
ten to twelve parkin spaces could be provided. The qar parking available
might not, on occasions, be sufficient to satisfy demand. This is a reasonable
assumption in the absence of details of precise bookings and uses, however
the exclusion of social functions will avoid the principal traffic generating
uses and protect residential enities. The concern about overspill parking
is voiced by Mrs. M.R. Ridgewell of 223 Main Road, who feels there is a
very real risk of parking on the classified road (Main Road) causing obstruc—
flon and accidents. If the Committee is prepared to grant permission, condition
No. 2 means that the permission is available only to the Parish Council
to exercise arid control.
The
si te is part of
larger frontage to Main Road which the County Council
has available for disposal.
ppllcation
No. CC/ROC/7/8O.
The Committee will recall that in March this year consideration was given
to a County Council proposal seeking deemed permission for 12 houses i,mmed—
iately east of the old school building. Objection was raised on the question
of additional means of vehicular access onto the classified road at a point
close to a bend and the suggestion was made that the County Council should
be seeking to achieve access from Eosworth Close. The consultation on this
proposal is being held in abeyarce at the County Council's request in order
to assess whether any improvements can be achieved in the layout.

a three unit block. The effect on density of units per acre is an increase
of one per acre from 12.35 to 13.08. These houses are included to continue

properties with garages within curti].age to some terracing with detached

The occupiers of 10 houses in I-Iarewood Avenue and 5 in Princess Gardens
have been consulted. Concern is expressed by owners of Nos. 73 and 79
Harewood Avenue that their privacy is not lost through overlooking. In
the layout one pair of two stony houses is proposed beck to back with
the existing houses in 1-larewood Avenue and the distance between is approximately 115 feet which is considered reasonabie. The third respondent
has no objections.
