I will go along with that one, Harvey Street is getting beyond a joke, when someone gets knocked down something will get done. I thought it was an offence to double park and to sell cars from the footpath.
Blackburn Road is just as bad some people seem to do as they please. Must admit the block paved areas in front of the shops has made nice car parks for some

Re: Planning Applications

Can understand the Parking aspect, however, this puzzled me as quite a way from any residential property.

Most take-aways have little or no parking areas either ?

Would think a chain like Dominoes would be very welcome as, I believe, their pizzas are very good, and would attract flow into town (even during the day).
Ok ... realise they have to abide by our planning rules.

Re: Planning Applications

These applications make interesting reading, they are all for "small scale" wind turbines, the farms are in the shadows of our new visitor attraction on ossy moor, an attraction that can be viewed from pendle hill.
11/12/0179 lower westall lot farm - decided - refused
11/12/0383 higher bold venture farm - decided - refused
11/12/0433 brewer lot farm - current.
The MOD have objected to all three applications - the reason being that all the proposed wind turbine installations would be 36.6km, 32.322km, & 33km away from "line of sight" from the ATC Radar at Warton.
There is no MOD comments on the visitor attraction (wind farm) application, is it possible they forgot or have they not objected....... because I am sure they must be very near "line of sight" to the Warton ATC Radar if the small scale farm ones are, or is that one OK because it will be making big bucks for someone

There is no residential property on the showroom side but there is on the other side, what used to be the workshop part a narrow street with houses directly facing

I am sure you are correct there Margaret someone has done their sums. It is estimated that each turbine will produce 7.2millon kW per year x by 12 the number of turbines and we have an estimated 86.4 million kW per year generated payments estimated at:-
1. A generation tariff = 0.49p per kW (for producing green energy)
2. An export tariff (what they put back in to the grid) in this case it is the whole lot = 0.47p per kW
That is a lot of money for the investors est. Ł83 million per year, life span of turbines = 20 years work that one out for yourself but it is a lot of money and who is paying............not hm.gov, not the banks...............but you and I in increased gas and electric charges to pay for this "green" energy

Re: Planning Applications

Yes, I know.......it really puts my blood pressure up.
Especially as these monstrosities are so ineffectual in producing the amount of energy that is needed......and they blight the landscape too(though I know some people think they look beautiful).
We have been sold a 'lemon' with these hideous things.......and in years to come we will realise this.

Well that was in July 2011, I passed the house today Wednesday 10th April 2013, we still have the detached singlt storey building, but it's now attached via a 2 storey "side" extension up to roof level and fitted out with windows.
The project is nothing like the planning application drawings. Whoever the Architect or Surveyor is he / she must know what is being built, may be there are 2 sets of plans, 1 for hyndburn council and 1 for the builder. Come on hyndburn planning enforcement section, sort it out. All I can say is that I am glad I do not live next door.
