Decision Maker: Planning Committee
Decision status: For Determination
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Planning permission refused for the following reason:
The proposed development would be located within the Green Belt as defined by the Chorley Local Plan 2012 – 2026. The proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt and, therefore, harmful by definition. It is not considered that there are very special circumstances to overcome the definitional harm to the Green Belt and additional harm caused through a contribution to the unrestricted sprawl and encroachment. The proposal is, therefore, contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework.
