To consider the above application. Minutes: Consideration was given to the above application.
(Councillor G Barton, the Ward Councillor attended the meeting and spoke in respect of the application).
RESOLVED
That for the reason set out in the report the application be refused for the following reason:-
1. The site lies within the North Cheshire Green Belt as defined by the Development Plan. The proposed development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt, and results in a loss of openness and encroachment into the countryside. It is not considered that the unmet need for gypsy accommodation in the area and other material considerations advanced by the applicant amount to very special circumstances that would clearly outweigh the identified harm to the Green Belt. The proposal is therefore contrary to policies GC1 and DC31 of the Macclesfield Borough Local Plan, the National Planning Policy Framework and Planning policy for traveller sites. |

To consider the above application. Minutes: Consideration was given to the above application.
(Councillor R Menlove, the Ward Councillor and Christian Brenninkmeijer, an objector attended the meeting and spoke in respect of the application).
RESOLVED
That the application be refused for the following reasons:-
1. The proposal, by virtue of excessive scale, massing, footprint and site coverage would be out of scale with adjoining buildings, the site itself and the character of the low density housing area. The proposal is therefore contrary to polcies DC1 and H12 of the Macclesfield Borough Local Plan (which are consistent with chapter 7 of the NPPF, requiring good design).
2. The scale, massing and siting of the proposed development would be overbearing to neighbouring property, in particular No. 22 Fletsand Road, causing a significant injury to amenity contrary to policy DC3 of the Local Plan and bullet point 4 of paragraph 17 (core principles) of the NPPF.
(This decision was contrary to the Officers recommendation of approval). |
