To consider the above planning application.

Minutes:

Mr S Holme and Ms P Cooley (objectors), Mr C Hughes (supporter) and Mr N Wheeler (on behalf of G L Hearn - the agent) 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 reasons:

 

1.      The development would result in a cramped form of development, in particular to the northern end of the site adjacent to Wallcroft Gardens and the existing public conveniences.  The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy GR2 of the adopted Congleton Borough Local Plan First Review 2005.

 

1.      The siting of the service yard adjacent to number 8 Southway, a Grade II Listed Building, would have an unacceptable impact on the setting of that building by virtue of its proximity, boundary treatments and associated activities relating to the proposed store.  The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy BH4 of the adopted Congleton Borough Local Plan First Review 2005.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Councillor Walton returned to the meeting during consideration of this application, but did not take part in the debate or vote.
