To consider the above planning application.

Minutes:

(Mr K Eckett (objector) and Alison Heine (agent) attended the meeting and addressed the committee on this matter).

 

The Committee considered a report regarding the above planning application, an updated report, a site layout plan, and an oral report by the Planning Officer.

 

During consideration of this application, the meeting was adjourned from

3.04-3.10 pm.

 

RESOLVED

 

That, contrary to the planning officer’s recommendation for approval, the application be REFUSED for the following reason:

 

The proposal would reduce openness and is an inappropriate form of development within the Green Belt, as defined by the Development Plan.  The identified harm is not outweighed by considerations in favour of the proposal, therefore it is not considered that very special circumstances exist to justify the development in the Green Belt.  The development is therefore contrary to policies GC1, GC6 and DC23 of the Macclesfield Borough Local Plan and would cause harm to the objectives of those policies.  The development is similarly contrary to national policy guidance relating to development within the Green Belt.
