29/22(01)                                                         CASE NUMBER: 21/04189/FUL

GRID REF:  EAST 434996 NORTH 463103

 

APPLICATION NO.:6.69.34.G.FUL

 

LOCATION:

Jubilee Court, Abacus House, Wath Lane, Copgrove HG3 3TB

 

PROPOSAL:

Retention of extension to building and a separate relocated pallet store (additional information submitted since last consultation).

 

APPLICANT:             Abacus Direct Ltd

 

REFUSED.  Reason(s) for refusal:-

 

1       The position of the pallet store near to the northern boundary and lack of adequate landscaping and screening will result in the building forming a hard edge to the site rather than the softer transition into the countryside, therefore being harmful to the visual amenity of the area and landscape character of the locality in conflict with policies EC2, NE4 and HP3 of the Local Plan.

 

Nick Stringer (Staveley with Copgrove Parish Council), Justin Appleyard (Objector) and Ian Pattison (Applicant) attended the meeting and spoke to the item under the Council’s Opportunity to Speak Scheme.

 

The officer’s recommendations that the application be ‘approved subject to conditions’, were moved and seconded. On a vote being taken, nine Members voted against the motion and three voted for therefore the motion to approve fell.

 

It was subsequently moved and seconded by Councillors Nigel Simms and Sue Lumby that the application be refused for the reasons outlined above. On a vote being taken, nine members voted for the motion and three voted against therefore the motion to refuse was passed.
