Application No :05/01006/OUTMAJ

Proposal : Outline application for the redevelopment of a 670 metre section of former railway line to form a linear park/recreational walkway and the part filling of land to facilitate the erection of 4 detached dwellings and the construction of a new access road .

Location : Former Railway Cutting East Of Blackburn Brow Chorley Lancashire

Decision:                 

It was proposed by Councillor Edgerley, seconded by Councillor A Lowe (Chair), and subsequently RESOLVED to refuse Outline Planning Application for the following reasons:

 

1. The proposed development would conflict with the provisions of policy DC2 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan which considers development in areas of Other Open Countryside. It is considered that the erection of four detached dwellings would be contrary to the terms of that policy in that there is a policy presumption against development other than that needed for the purposes of agriculture, forestry or other uses appropriate to a rural area. Furthermore, given the location of the site in the West Pennine Moors, the resultant built development in juxtaposition to the natural environment amidst which it is set would appear incongruous and out of character.

 

2. The proposed development when considered in the context of latest housing site monitoring information would contribute towards an inappropriate excess in housing supply provision.  The proposal would therefore be contrary to:

m)    Approved Interim Supplementary Planning Guidance on Windfall Housing Developments, together with

n)      the aims and objectives of the Joint Lancashire Structure Plan and Regional Planning guidance for the North West.

 

Insufficient justification has been submitted to otherwise warrant the release of land for residential development as an exception to the normal presumption against development in an area of other open countryside.

 

(Councillor Parr declared an interest in the following application and left the meeting during the discussion and voting on the proposal).

 

Application No :05/00670/REM

An amendment was moved by the Chair (Councillor A Lowe), and seconded by Councillor Edgerley, to approve the Reserved Matters Application and authorise the officers to consult with the developers on the most appropriate route for construction traffic.on being put to the vote the amendment was carried (16:3). It was subsequently RESOLVED that the Reserved Matters, Application be approved, subject to the following conditions:

 

1. The development must be commenced within five years of the date of this permission.

Reason: Required to be implemented pursuant to Section 92 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

Application No :05/00876/FUL

Proposal : Retrospective application for the erection of link corridor between two buildings,

Location : Sitchcroft Farm Brown House Lane Wheelton Lancashire PR6 8HR

Decision:                 

It was proposed by Councillor Heaton, seconded and subsequently RESOLVED to refuse the Planning Application for the following reasons:

 

1. The link extension is located on a residential property located within the Green Belt as defined by the Joint Lancashire Structure Plan 2001 - 2016 and the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review. The link extension has resulted in the recently erected domestic outbuilding becoming an extension to the property, which has already been substantially extended. The resultant dwelling has a detrimental impact upon the open and rural character of the Green Belt. Accordingly, the link extension is contrary to Policy DC8A of the Chorley Borough Local Plan Review, the Council’s approved House Extension Design Guidelines and PPG2, which all seek to resist major extensions to existing dwellings located in the Green Belt which significantly increase their impact on the open and rural character and appearance of the Green Belt.
