The gui<iancecootained in Annex C of theiPPGoffers the' opportunity for the iocal planning authoritY to actively: promote new development on such sites where it would achieve an environmental improvement, but subject to the proviso.that the overalLcharacter and aims of the.QreenBeltwouldQot be prejudiced or compromised. In other words, the new guidance allows for policies in development plans which would permit infJlling or redevelopment under specific circumstances, which might otherwise need to be treated as exceptions or departures from the development plan, but the Green Belt context of the site and its surroundings should not be pr~iudiced or weakened. 12;5 Annex C gives advice on how such sites should he defined. It is very clear that the boundary should show only the present extent of development and, where new building .' is proposed, this should not extend heyond the 'footprint' of the original buildings excluding areas of hardstanding or open spaces betweenf.juildings: •.The site as defined on the Proposals Map is extensive, it includes the operational areas of the colliery, th~ tipped areas and the hardstandings, stocking areas. parkingar&dsandacces~:ro~ds. It is my view that, hearing in mind the guidance contained in Anne~ Citmay;got be appropriate to permit new development. over all of this area, in view of the fact that a relatively small proportion of the site was covered hy built development. I consider that a proper interpretation of Annex C ~?~Idp~~rnit only a relatively small proportion of the site to be occupied by ne\\,\6.Ujldi:~gsc' Jy'eIlJU~~ingf?~theiIlterpretation of the clause which would allow more building 'where'the OV~ral~Vlsu"dimRa~lmaybe less (ie allowing for the demolition of the pit~headt?\Versand LeI~v~t.i~g·conveyors).

  • Cheshire Neighbourhood Watch Association Week Ending 6Th December 2020 Cheshire News & Appeals
    Cheshire Neighbourhood Watch Association Week ending 6th December 2020 Cheshire News & Appeals Latest Cheshire News Commissioner praises Chief Constable as Cheshire’s top cop announces retirement Cheshire Constabulary Chief Constable Darren Martland has announced his intention to retire in the Spring of next year. PCC David Keane praises his dedication to policing in Cheshire and for more than three decades of service as a police officer. Darren started his policing career in 1990, having graduated from Sheffield University. The initial part of his career was spent in the Knowsley area where he completed a number of uniform and CID postings. In 1999 he joined Cheshire Constabulary where he worked in a number of areas, in mainly uniform operational roles in Halton and Macclesfield. He was later posted to the Eastern Area as the uniformed Chief Inspector. Following his spell in Cheshire, he has served in senior roles at both Merseyside and Cumbria. He successfully completed the Strategic Command Course in 2013 before finally returning to Cheshire in the start of 2017. CC Darren Martland said: “It has been an honour and privilege to serve the public, as a police officer, for more than 30 years, and I have made the very difficult decision to retire from policing in order to enable me to spend more time with my family and pursue other personal interests. I am immensely proud to have led such a wonderful organisation, and I have no doubt that, given the professionalism, care and commitment demonstrated by our staff and volunteers, Cheshire Constabulary will meet the current and future policing challenges, and will continue to ‘Make Cheshire Safer’.” Praising Darren for his work both as Chief Constable and across his policing career David Keane said: “I want to thank Darren personally for more than 30 years of service to the public as a police officer, and in particular for his commitment to making Cheshire safer during his tenure as our Chief Constable.

  • Plans for Lymm Fire Station and Safety Centre
    Plans for Lymm Fire Station and Safety Centre: Public Consultation 14/7/14 Page 1 of 12 Summary Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service intends to submit planning permission in 2014 to build a new integrated fire station and safety centre on land off Cliff Lane, Lymm. The Service was keen to gauge public opinion about the plans in advance of the formal submission. To do this the Service organised a public exhibition in the area at Lymm Village Hall and invited people to comment about the plans online via the Service’s website. Key findings were: • 26 of 32 respondents supported the Service’s plans to build a fire station and safety centre in Lymm. • 26 respondents liked the proposed design of the fire station and safety centre. • 27 respondents supported the Service’s plans to target the safety centre towards school groups, new parents and carers. • 28 respondents supported the type of activities and programmes that the Service plans to undertake at the safety centre. • Main concerns raised relate to access and traffic concerns onto the A50 and concerns over the Green Belt status of the proposed site. Background In 2012-13 Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service (CFRS) carried out a detailed review into how its frontline emergency response services could be best provided in the future. The aim was to ensure the Service could continue to protect and improve the safety of local communities while taking into account risk and activity levels and the major cuts in its funding. Following a major public consultation programme, a wide-ranging Emergency Response Programme was agreed in principle which involves building some new fire stations, keeping the same number of fire engines, but making significant changes in how they are staffed.

The chances are that you’ll look at your 1:500,000 chart and flight guide and think, ‘this is going to be complex and probably beyond me’. Well, it isn’t if you remember what I’m sure your CFI told you. Remember the bit about good pre-planning? Well, that’s the answer here.
