PDF 96 KBTo consider the above planning application.
Minutes:
Note: Councillor D Flude (Ward Councillor) had not registered her intention to address the Committee. However, in accordance with paragraph 2.8 of the public speaking rights at Strategic Planning Board and Planning Committee meetings, the Committee agreed to allow Councillor Flude to speak.
The Committee considered a report and a written update regarding the above planning application.
RESOLVED – That the application be REFUSED for the following reason:
The proposed development by reasoning of its height, siting and design would create an alien and intrusive feature. This is a prominent location within the residential area and this proposal would represent a visually incongruous insertion that would harm the character and appearance of the area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies NE.18 (Telecommunications Development), and BE.2 (Design Standards) of the Borough of Crewe and Nantwich Replacement Local Plan 2011.
