32 Land South West of The Green, Middlewich

To consider a report on the Land South West of The Green, Middlewich.

Minutes:

Consideration was given to the above report.

 

At the meeting held on 26 July 2010 the Strategic Planning Board considered an outline application for up to 68 dwellings with associated public open space and highway works with details of access and siting.

 

The Strategic Planning Board refused the application for three reasons relating to open countryside policy and spatial vision, inadequate Public Open Space and a lack of low cost housing.

 

The Applicant has appealed this decision and a Public Local Inquiry will take place later in the year.  Since the refusal, the Applicant has submitted further information in support of their case and, having taken Legal advice regarding the merits of the appeal the following resolution was agreed:-

 

RESOLVED

 

That the third reason for refusal in respect of low cost market housing be withdrawn and that the Head of Planning and Housing in consultation with the Chairman or Vice Chairman be instructed to amend or remove any other reason for refusal if necessary.
