To consider the above planning application

Minutes:

Note: Mr J Meadows (objector) attended the meeting and addressed the Committee on this matter.

 

The Committee considered a report regarding the above planning application and a written update.

 

RESOLVED – That the application be REFUSED for the following reason:

 

The Local Planning Authority considers that the proposed dwellinghouses are an unacceptable form of development due to their location within an area of open countryside where there is strict control over new residential development.  The development is not considered to fulfil the criteria for infill development and no evidence of need has been made to justify an exception to policy to warrant this intrusion into the open countryside.  The proposals would therefore be contrary to policies NE.2 (Open Countryside) and RES.5 (Housing in the Open Countryside) of the Borough of Crewe and Nantwich Replacement Local Plan 2011.
