Noticed all these for Hyndburn Homes Park ... :D:D

Hope they won't be ordered to take them all down .. will be quite a few angry TV viewing residents ... :eek:

P.S ... hope your new hip is servicing you well ... tried to wish you luck on your short blog, but wouldn't let me comment for some reason.

May have been ordered to take them down if anyone other than Hyndburn Homes
Yes thanks kate, I am getting there, was only in hospital for 4 days, they get you up walking the day after the operation, the true test will be when the golf season comes round :D

Seems like Stanley has been given a little more breathing space against recommendation:

Accrington Stanley avoid threat of control room court action (From Lancashire Telegraph)


REPORT TO PLANNING COMMITTEE – 27th JANUARY 2010
REPORT BY: CHIEF PLANNING AND TRANSPORTATION OFFICER
PREPARED BY: DEVELOPMENT CONTROL MANAGER
RECENT APPEAL DECISION
Purpose of Report
The attached report advises members of recent appeal decision.
RECOMMENDATION
(i) Members note the report.
(ii) That authority is given to the Chief Planning and Transportation
Officer to instruct the Council’s legal department to arrange a
prosecution hearing in the local magistrate’s court for non compliance
with the enforcement notice.
Planning Application No. 11/09/0279
Erection of ground control room at first floor level, with access stairway and
screen fencing
Crown Ground, Livingstone Road, Accrington, BB5 5BX
This appeal was dealt with by written representations and was dismissed on
5th January 2010. A copy of the Inspector’s report is attached.
An enforcement notice has already been served in respect of the
unauthorised development. The owner did not appeal the enforcement
notice. The Council took the decision that it would not arrange a prosecution
hearing whilst a planning application appeal decision was pending. It is likely
that the magistrates would have put proceedings on hold in such
circumstances. Given that the Inspector, acting on behalf of the Secretary of
State, has now dismissed the appeal I have no other option but to recommend
that legal action be pursued in the form of a prosecution hearing in the local
magistrate’s court.

There was never a planning application.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Eeew hek .. is Basingstoke moving then ?

I'm confused .. I thought this land belonged to HBC .. they are saying B with D plus private owner (Peel Holdings do you think ?). Better than another retail park which, I think, was attempted ?

Still, anything that helps our area eh ?

Re: Planning Applications
 

Re: Planning Applications
 

Erection of 1.8 metre fence round ossy town hall car park, that'l look odd, imo.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Are they not doing some refurbishment work in Town/Civic Hall, could contractors be using car park as a compound.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Yeah that might be the case, it would look strange with a big fence there permanently.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Gayle explained in another thread that is was temporary contractors compound.

Re: Planning Applications
 

It is to stop kids playing ball games there. They don't take any notice of the sign that's there, "No ball games" - in fact, I've been told they use it as a target. Letter has gone out to local residents saying car park is going to be fenced off.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Re: Planning Applications
 

Most of them are all for an easy life and won't bother. When someone calls the Police it will be easier to catch them if they are in a cage.

On second thoughts why not put a fence up and leave the gate open? This will give the kids somewhere to play where they can be seen so feel safe. The fence will help keep the ball in the area and cause less problems for the neighbours.

The "No ball games" signs are a waste of money as they can not be enforced unless a by-law has been passed to support it.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Exactly No Ball Game Signs are a waste of time an money

Re: Planning Applications
 

For one year in the early 70s, I lived in the end house (#26) next to that car park.
I experienced grafitti on the gable as a greater problem than balls being bounced at it.
When I bought that house (for cash) it had a smooth black bitumen surface on the gable, which was used as a blackboard. I soon had that replaced with an uneven textured cement render, so that it was less of a target for grafitti, and balls bounced back at unexpected angles.

I lived there for one year only until I got my 1st divorce settlement which enabled me to get a mortgage.

During my time there, the biggest aggravation was parking by persons attending town hall functions.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Exactly Margaret, that is why we need the land at the side for parking for the Civic Theatre. It is bad around there for all concerned. Not long ago my brother, who has done more than his share to improve the stage lighting, was threatened by a resident on Sun Street ...if he didn't move it, wouldn't be much of his car left when he returned. Of course, this resident had no right but my brother, being a peaceloving person, did move it. Would like to have seen him try it with me ... :mad: Course ... can understand how the residents feel, and visitors to the theatre too. Gonna' be worse once the arts community centre is installed.

Re: Planning Applications
 

My parents lived in Monarch Street right opposite the Civic Theatre Kate and it was always a bone of contention with them, along with parking at the Nat West bank too, yet there is a car park at the back of what was their home and nobody uses it, its the site of the old Ossy UDC council yard

A gym do you reckon ?

Re: Planning Applications
 

The writing Monarch St Oswaldtwistle runs through the Middle of it on the picture Kate

Re: Planning Applications
 

Not many spaces there though Jaysay. Looks like the residents use it, in the main.

Latest hearsay on the land next to the theatre is that it is on offer for around £300,000 (seems could have full planning permission for housing). HBC would like LCC to buy it back. HBC would be responsible for developing the car park and LCC would lease it to HBC. Problem is, LCC 'aint got no money... :( So no goer really, however, would love to know exactly the correct version if this is not it. :D

Re: Planning Applications
 

Think there's about 20 spaces Kate, but not sure, when my parents lived there it was hardly ever used, but haven't been near the area since my fathe died in 2003

Its good news that they are going to demolish the palladium in oswaldtwistle, it has been a blot on the landscape for such a long time.I hope they put the site to good use, however I can see it becoming another car park for ossy mills.As long as it is brightened up it will be alot nicer than the sorry state its in now.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Could anyone explain why it is only now that formal planning permission for the revamp of the Market Hall has only now been applied for? I can understand the part concerning the exposure and reinstatement of the flagstones, but what about the rest of the stuff. A notice was placed in last week's Observer and there is a notice on HBC's planning site - but I would have assumed that this should have been placed a year or so ago, particularly in relation to stall fitting. Has HBC cocked up and are they now applying for planning permission on a listed building in retrospect?

Re: Planning Applications
 

Sorry, can't help, but Cllr. Britcliffe mentioned the Market Hall revamp in his Observer column.

He said it was Queen Anne on the outside, and Mary-Ann on the inside.

Well it made me laugh, anyway.

:D

Re: Planning Applications
 

What i can't fathom, whilst its looking ok in the revamped market hall, why did they not have moving stairs up at one end n down at the other end? ok theres a lift, which is very small about 4 people at a guess, many dont like small lifts n many aint mobile enough to walk up n down the stairs, or will not wi bags of shopping.:eek: its gonna be a damned hard slog fer businesses up yon to make a do IMHO, which would be a shame cos the improvements are nice.:rolleyes:

Re: Planning Applications
 

Which also reminds me...I recall from about two years ago that planning permission had been granted for the old Oak Tree pub on the Church/Accy border to be converted into Solicitors Offices...it is now an off-license...Booze R Uz or something similar. How the hell did this happen?

Re: Planning Applications
 

Who knows Tealeaf .. probably did get it .. can search if you wish.. maybe they found better premises or went bust. May have specialised in house conveyancing.. LOL

Just noticed for the last Planning meeting .. last Wednesday. The Thorn Inn/Church was appealing against their rejection of a smoking area (due to not fitting in with the surroundings). Not sure if they got it or not ?

Re: Planning Applications
 

Bet the 2 for 1 offer has finished by the time they build it


Hahaha.

Should it not be former gym or did the gym never have planning permission ?

Re: Planning Applications
 

I wonder if anyone could point out where planning permission has been granted for the demolition of the old stone wall which cuts across the Church/Accy boundary on the south side of Blackburn Rd and is the northernmost perimeter of the 'Acorn Park' development.

This wall was probably built sometime between the construction of Blackburn Rd in the 1820's and the reservoir lying south in the 1830/40's (now Acorn Park). It was, of course the site of regular whitewashings following Church/Accy cricket matches and piccys of these go back to the latter part of the 19th C. I cannot see where or how it is now going to be reconstituted so I can only assume it has now gone for good and in it's place we shall all have a splendid view of some mickey mouse housing estate.

So...has this wrecking job been legal or not?

Re: Planning Applications
 

Ya' daft beggar ...course it is legal .. demolition of this wall would have been in the umbrella of the full planning application.

Was just a blooming wall anyway ... edging of a now defunct reservoir. :rolleyes:

Re: Planning Applications
 

Was it specified in detail in the full planning application?

That was an old wall with an awful lot of historical significance. You might be happy with second rate cow sheds and third rate doll's houses going up all over the place, but some of us have class, culture, historical awareness and pride in our little town.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Sure it was .. but until HBC come up to date with full planning details on line (and not having to traipse down to Scaitcliffe House to view) can only logically presume.

Not even going to succumb to answer the other paragraph. Come to our meeting on Thursday of the Hyndburn Local History Society and meet people who are really interested in the pride of our town, including me ... :p

Re: Planning Applications
 

It's the Sea Cadets place. Behind what use to be the vets on Whalley Rd, on the canal tow path. It's all that area there, that's the Clayton Triangle. We've been trying to get some investment there for a long time.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Thanks Bernard ... thought it may have been. Didn't realise the sea cadets place had actually closed, although did look neglected last time I walked past.

Just trying to work out access to this new build ?

Re: Planning Applications
 

Just been looking on rightmove, and noticed that stone bridge mill in oswaldtwistle has been put up for sale.It says freehold residential developement 6 acres, that would be a big developement, be interesting to see if a big housebuilder submits plans for it, doesnt say what the price is, but i guess it will be alot.

Mr S Hussain

went past the site on friday, work was in full swing, machines on there floor slabs and pot beam floor down, application has not gone to committee yet, must have had the nod from someone in power :cool:

Re: Planning Applications
 

Its actually a bit silly starting wihout planning Park, could just end up get retro refused, then their in the dodo:rolleyes:

Re: Planning Applications
 

Re: Planning Applications
 

Had another look at this link, and I find that the officer has noted at the start of the report "Councillor Ayub requested that this application be considered by the planning committee"
Councillor Ayub is a member of the planning committee,is his request not a little naughty, should he not declaire an interest as and when the application is discussed in planning committee and leave the room. :eek:

Re: Planning Applications
 

I did puzzle about that one, Park, as to if he had some sort of interest ... just thought he may have been trying to do his best for one of his constituents. Wonder which way he voted though.

Re: Planning Applications
 

I think they should make them remove the work they have done before the planning application is decided on. I think it is wrong for a builder to start without it as they know they need it. Stick them with a big fine so they will wait next time.
