Meeting: 05/10/2011 - Southern Planning Committee (Item 85)
PDF 493 KBTo consider the above planning application.
Minutes:
Note: Councillor M Simon (Ward Councillor) attended the meeting and addressed the Committee on this matter.
The Committee considered a report regarding the above planning application, a written update and an oral update by the Southern Area Manager - Development Management.
RESOLVED – That, contrary to the planning officer’s recommendation for approval, the application be REFUSED for the following reason:
The proposed development by reasoning of its height, siting and design would create an alien and intrusive feature. This is a prominent location within the residential area and this proposal would represent a visually incongruous insertion that would harm the character and appearance of the area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies NE.18 (Telecommunications Development), and BE.2 (Design Standards) of the Borough of Crewe and Nantwich Replacement Local Plan 2011.
