To consider the above planning application

Minutes:

Note: Councillor J Hammond (Ward Councillor and representative of Mr S Reed, an objector who was unable to attend), Councillor T Lightfoot (on behalf of Wybunbury Parish Council) and Mr A Thornley (on behalf of the applicant) attended the meeting and addressed the Committee on this matter.

The Committee considered a report regarding the above planning application and an oral report of the site inspection.

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

The development site is too small to accommodate the proposed livery business for 20 horses. To allow the development would be contrary to policy RT.6 (Recreational Uses in the Open Countryside) of the Borough of Crewe and Nantwich Replacement Local Plan 2011.

Note: In accordance with Part 4B, Paragraph 31.4 of the Council’s Constitution, Councillors B Dykes, A Kolker and G Merry requested that it be recorded in the Minutes that they abstained from voting on this item.
