To discuss the EA Flood Action Campaign.

The Clerk circulated the EA Flood action plan to Committee members ahead of the meeting. The prime focus of the EA Flood Action plan is to raise awareness of flooding with the general public. EBC had actioned a full strategic review of the flood situation in Claygate in 2019. In this review Claygate was classed as low risk for flooding from rivers. The River Rythe had creating some fluvial flooding on Hare Lane and Raleigh Drive historically. The EBC review noted that there is a high risk of surface water flooding in Claygate. SCC have identified the following locations as susceptible to surface water flooding: Oaken Lane, Gordon Road, The Avenue, The Parade, Foley Road, Church Road, Coverts Road, and Littleworth Road. It was noted that SCC had been actively clearing gullies in a number of problem roads over the winter period. In particular, the work that SCC had done in widening the gullies on Church Road by the bus stop, appeared to have been a success. SCC will still need to clear out the gullies each year due to leaves but once cleared the gullies should function correctly and Church Road
should remain flood free. Finally, it was noted that Claygate Centre on Elm Road was an Emergency Rest Centre in the event of a flooding incident.
The CPC urged Claygate residents to move their cars on days that SCC are cleaning gullies to ensure SCC has the best chance in preventing surface water flooding. They asked that Raleigh Drive residents contact Thames Water in the event of flooding in that area as it was often relating to the pumping station by Hare Lane Green. CPC would continue to push that new developments in the area, such as Claygate House, are taking a proactive responsibility to protect the River Rythe area from future flooding and that they are doing their bit to maintain the river.
The Committee agreed that EBC Strategic Flood review had identified the areas of concern and that CPC will continue to monitor the situation.
The Clerk then updated the committee on the flooding under the railway bridge on the Bridleway South of the A3. Savills had informed her that they had Freeflow on site for three days pumping water from the underpass to try and clear the drain, however they were fighting a losing battle as the water was coming off the fields and into the underpass faster than we could pump it out. They’ve spoken to Surrey County Council and H&S signage has gone up for the time being to advise of deep water and blocked access. They will then need to revisit this in April/May once the winter rains have passed to pump the water away and then either clear the existing drain or look at alternative options of providing an outlet for the surface water run-off. Savills want CPC to be assured that it is something they are taking seriously and they are looking to find a long-term solution to. (PARISH COUNCIL HT&E MEETING 11-FEB-21)

AP58 Clerk to write to EBC Planning and EBC Councillors highlighting the CPC Planning Committee's strong concerns regarding the Station House development (application no. 2019/2381) and requesting that CPC receives visibility of a Traffic Management plan before construction commences as well as confirmation of who will be overseeing the adherence to this Traffic Management plan at EBC. DONE. Nathalie Lynch at EBC Planning confirmed as part of the grant of permission, a condition has been imposed requiring a Construction Transport Management Plan to be submitted and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority before the development commences.
To date, an application to confirm compliance with this condition has not been submitted. Once an application has been received, Surrey County Council as the Highway Authority would be consulted for their views/comments on the Construction Transport Management Plan. The condition requires the approved details in the Construction Transport Management Plan to be followed. Any breach of a planning condition would need to be reported to the EBC Planning Compliance team so that this can be investigated.

York House № 18A
- York House 18A The Parade, KT10 0NU — 2020/2440 — PROPOSAL: Part single/part first-floor rear extension incorporating attached garage, rear dormer window, bin and cycle stores and alterations to fenestration following demolition of existing detached garage. — COUNCIL RESPONSE: Dormer window permitted.
- EBC assessed “the proposed dormer window would be of a size and scale that would dominate the rear roof slope of the host building. Typically, this would not be acceptable, however it is noted that there are several dormers of a similar size, scale and finish further along the terrace, one of which was permitted within the last few years at No. 28A The Parade, reference 2017/2854. As such in this instance it is considered that the proposed dormer would be in keeping with the existing character of the area.”
- The applicant amended the plans to
- remove the proposed PV slate roof tiles from the front elevation that would otherwise not match surrounding buildings.
- Replace the ground source heat pump has with an air source heat pump which is not considered to be harmful to the character of the area or the amenity of the neighbouring properties by reason of noise and disturbance. (PARISH COUNCIL PLANNING MEETING 28-JAN-21)
