Re: Planning Applications
 

Haven't seen Park on for a while hope he's okay

Re: Planning Applications
 

This has been refused and one was on the erection of the domes and minarets. Good.
There was other refusals on grounds of parking and overbearing impact to surrounding properties.

Reasons for refusal

1 The proposed dome, minarets and canopy, by reason of their location, design,
appearance and materials, would be inappropriate and out of character with the
surrounding development and therefore detrimental to the visual amenities of the area.
Therefore the proposed development would be contrary to saved Policy E10 of the
Hyndburn Borough Local Plan and to Policies Env6 & Env7 of the Hyndburn Core
Strategy and PPS 1.

I've been wondering too, Jaysay. Come back Park. x

Planning Committee

Re: Planning Applications
 

I managed to stay awake Kate. It lasted about 3 hours, but there was a big agenda as you say. A lot of people at the meeting as well.

Re: Planning Applications
 

What was the main interest ? See some big projects being presented. Hambledon Mill, Junction 7. Noticed the land destined for the Hill Top development has now been sold.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Junction 7 and Hambledon Mill were the big ones.Quite a few people speaking on both, which you would expect. The Hill Top was the report back from the Inspector.

Re: Planning Applications
 

The Planning and Transportation budget has been cut by 30% and staff number have been reduced. The planning reception counter will only be open half days now.

I have attached a pdf letter from HBC with the details in for those interested.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Hi jaysay, yes I am fine have been busy with other things :D

Re: Planning Applications
 

Does all this mean that there will be less checking of projects on site, hence more projects completed that differ from the approved plans. If neighbours don't complain then the developers will do as they please.

Re: Planning Applications
 

Oh thats good to here Park

Re: Planning Applications
 

Thank you jaysay, will be keeping an eye on the applications and comments ;) :D
