Planning Applications

Eeew hek ! More trouble brewing methinks :

11/09/0177 Erection of Retail Store (Class A1) Land at Heys Lane/Station
with Road Great Harwood
associated car parking, landscaping,
access and servicing
12/05/2009
Aldi Stores Ltd
 
The building that Tesco originally put an offer in for, on Burnley road, Clayton, has now got an auction sign on it, so could be more supermarket sweeping going on.
 
I'm not a happy bunny ... nothing on the website since period ending 15/5/09 !!

Yet, last week in the Observer, they had a list of applications. Did they get them sent by HBC ? Can't see that they visited Scaitliffe House to view. Wasn't much anyway, unless you consider Sparth House applying for a swimming pool.
Course you will all know that Tesco's application has now been accepted for Great Harwood ... :(

Are the general public being ignored now with regard to up-to-date information ?

Agree to a certain extent Jaysay. It is human nature to take an interest in buildings in your area that would affect you, like large extension to the house next door oveshadowing your own home, planning for a drug centre which may affect the price of your property, new supermarkets which may tread on your toes, transport systems which may take away the parking from outside your front door and change of use to nearby shops.

I think now though there is a slight rise in interest in general applications for the regeneration of our town ... because more information has become available. Years ago ... us working class would not be aware that we could have a say in what the council intended and wouldn't think our voices expressing opinion would have any clout. Now, however, it is there through the media, and through the internet. That is why I am so annoyed that they have not put up any details for weeks !! Someone being sloppy.

We do on here, for example, discuss certain intentions of new developments which would not have been so openly displayed in the past.
 
Kate - all councillors get a list of planning applications (which have been submitted that week) emailed to them weekly. If you give me your email address in a PM - I will send you copies of the emails from w/e 15/05/09)

Great Claytonender ... will do .. but I will copy it on here.

Still does not excuse the Planning Department though for the length of time since the last ones were put on their website. Had been set up as a public service which is not being fulfilled, and now taking up your precious time to do what you suggest.
 
And as for the drug rehabilitation centre Kate they know objections are going to be nearly zilch cos hardly any residents at present. Makes me wonder if the new developments backers are going to be best pleased at getting planning permission spending money on re-developing then having this put on the doorstep of the properties.

Their is one letter of objection in the Observer Bernie ... don't know whether you have seen it from an elderly couple who live opposite the proposed site.

They feel because the site is more isolated than the original suggestion of Avenue Parade, there will not be as much supervision ordered on Paradise Street/Eagle Street where there is not even a CCTV camera. They already have experiences of large boozing parties on their back drive.

Yep saw it Kate, was my next door neighbour. They share the same bit of back street as me and to be honest would think it is highly unlikely there was ever a boozing party down there. Do understand their concerns given their ages but the facility is needed and as far as I'm concerned the decision was made ages ago. As I said before very few residents to object to the proposal, enough said in my book. Having said that not the best idea in the world to put it next to the skate park IMHO

Hope you got the copies of the planning applications that I emailed you. I was about to email the planning dept to ask when the website would be uptodate - but when I checked the website I noticed that the reports were there but in the wrong order.

Whoops .. you are so right Claytender :o Have looked at it many times and never spotted that ... just looked at the top the bottom two. It's in a mess, isn't it.
Suppose I owe the Planning Department an apology.

Got your E-mail and have replied to thank you for your prompt attention.

Lots of improvements to houses still reflecting the reluctance of people to move house. Just these two are of interest:-

11/09/0201 Outlined Application: Erection of a 12,000 Land off Red Shell Lane 11/06/2009
bird, free range egg production, unit Oswaldtwistle Accrington BB5
3RW

Mr William Holden


Not sure whether I would like to be near it ... cluck, cluck.:D


and of course:-


11/09/0232 Erection of three-storey sixth form centre St. Christopher's C of E High School Queens Road on existing games court, with associated West 10/06/2009
landscaping, parking and access from Accrington BB5 4AY
Queen's Road West


Mrs Pam Haralambos


Long overdue, but not keen on it being linked to a church school despite their reassurances will have no affect on non C of E children who wish to attend.
