Decision:

Full planning permission refused and enforcement action authorised.

Minutes:

Registered speakers: Paul Prescott (objector) and Joe Makepeace (agent)

 

RESOLVED (unanimously) – That full planning permission be refused for the reasons set out below.

 

Reasons: The proposed development would be located within the Green Belt as defined by the Chorley Local Plan 2012 – 2026. The proposed development would have substantial impact on the openness of the Green Belt, would conflict with the purposes of including land within the Green Belt and as such represents inappropriate development. No very special circumstances have been presented which outweigh the harm to the Green Belt which would be caused by the proposed development. As such, the proposed development is contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

RESOLVED (unanimously) – That enforcement action be authorised in relation to the unauthorised development in consultation with the Head of Legal, Democratic and HR Services.
