Page 1 82 26.02.2013 Planning Committee P/97 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION 1.SL/2012/0566 KENDAL: Land to west of Oxenholme Road, Kendal. Residential Development. (Briery Homes Ltd) Before discussion of the item commenced, the Chairman informed the Committee that the applicant had submitted an appeal of non-determination and that if the appeal proved to be valid, the Committee could only indicate how it would have been minded to determine the application. If the appeal proved to be invalid, the decision could still be issued by the Director of People and Places under delegated authority. Dennis Reed, spoke on behalf of the Triangle Opposition Group (TOG) in objection to the application. A full copy of the representation has been placed on the Democratic Serviced file. Objections were raised in relation to the damage that would be caused to the character of the local landscape, over intensive development of the site and wider infrastructure concerns such as the need for more schools, recreational spaces and traffic calming measures. Alastair Skelton, the applicant’s agent, responded to the points raised. He stated that the key issue for the applicant was to ensure that the infrastructure met local needs. The development was considered pivotal to the necessary growth of the area. A site visit had been undertaken and Members had had the opportunity to view the proposed site from several vantage points. The Planning Officer provided the Committee with a summary of a letter received from the applicant’s agent, which stated that £115,884 which had been requested by Cumbria County Council as a highways and transport contribution would not be committed to as it was considered not to meet the statutory tests for obligations set out in the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations. With regard to other key elements, Briery Homes was willing to provide an affordable housing element of 10%, provide education contributions up to a maximum of £361,530, off-site public open space improvements of £20,000 plus a further £8,000 contribution for an off-site ‘kick about’ area. Cumbria County Council had sent a letter stating that it believed that the request for highways and transport contributions did meet the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations tests and that the contribution would be directly related to the development. A discussion took place. Members felt that impact upon local primary school provision, the traffic generated by the development and the inability of the applicant to meet the needs of affordable housing provision outweighed the potential benefits of the development. The Director of People and Places be authorised to either REFUSE or inform the Planning Inspectorate that Planning Permission would have been refused had the Page 2 83 26.02.2013 Planning Committee Planning Committee been in a position to do so, for the reasons contained in the Committee Report. 3.SL/2012/0886 HELSINGTON: The Wheatsheaf Inn, Brigsteer, Kendal, LA8 8AN. Single storey rear extension, side extension, bay window, external stone staircase and front porch. (Individual Inns) Richard Frank, owner of a neighbouring property, spoke in objection to the application. A full copy of his representation has been placed on the Democratic Services file. He felt that the proposed development would impact upon the privacy afforded to his family and the outdoor area could cause light and noise pollution issues. Duncan Isherwood, the applicant’s agent, spoke of the support that had been received from local residents for the re-opening of the pub. The applicant was agreeable to the conditions suggested in the planning report, and would also arrange for fixed windows at ground level. Members discussed the possible un-neighbourly nature and parking impact of the development and were minded to suggest that the item be deferred to enable further negotiations to take place with the applicant. DEFER – to allow for further negotiations to take place with the applicant. P/98 REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF PEOPLE AND PLACES 5.SL/2012/0934 BURTON IN KENDAL: The Tannery, Tanpits Lane, Burton in Kendal, LA6 1HZ. Extensions and alterations to form annexed accommodation. (Mrs C Cliffe and Mr B Hornby) The Committee requested that a site visit be undertaken in order to view the proposal in relation to properties to the south and east. DEFER – to allow a site visit. 4.SL/2012/0914 KIRKBY IRELETH: The Moors, Sandside, Kirkby-in-Furness, LA17 7UB. Detached dwelling. (Mr W Brocklebank) Following a deferral for a site visit, the Committee was advised that whilst no objections had been raised against the development, the property would still be a new residential dwelling within open countryside, and therefore would be contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework and Policies CS1.2, CS3.1 and CS6.4 of the adopted South Lakeland Core Strategy. It was concluded that there were no significant material considerations relating to the application which could have been regarded as justification for allowing an exception to policy to be made.

  • Appendix 1 Arnside Silverdale AONB DPD.Pdf
    AONB DPD Publication Version (September 2017) Appendix 1 viaduct 2 AONB DPD Publication Version (September 2017) Foreword This Draft Development Plan Document for the Arnside & Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty has been produced by Lancaster and South Lakeland District Councils, with assistance from the Arnside & Silverdale AONB Unit. A joint working approach makes sense because these bodies have a shared responsibility for this important protected landscape. The Draft Plan is a key stage in preparing what will be the first Development Plan Document for an AONB in the country. Its publication begins a six-week period during which formal representations on the soundness of the DPD may be made prior to submission of the DPD for examination. The Plan builds on the Management Plan for the AONB, for which the underlying principle is to work collaboratively to help conserve and enhance the landscape of the area. The Plan places the landscape at the heart of shaping development over the next 15 years. It is a clear statement of the positive benefits of joint working between Lancaster and South Lakeland, and once adopted the two Councils are committed to applying the policies consistently. Signed: Cllr. Jonathan Brook, Housing & Innovation Portfolio Holder, South Lakeland District Council Cllr. Janice Hanson, Economic Regeneration & Planning Portfolio Holder, Lancaster City Council AONB DPD Publication Version (September 2017) Contents 1 Introduction .................................................................................................................... 3 1.1 Introduction ............................................................................................................. 3 1.2 Why do we need a Development Plan Document for the AONB? ........................... 3 1.3 Other documents that guide development in the AONB .......................................... 7 1.4 Progress Update and Next Steps .........................................................................

    SCHEDULE A Complex Planning Applications SCHEDULE No: 1 SL/2011/0685 PENNINGTON: STANDISH COTE AND MEAN MOOR, MARTON AND HARLOCK HILL, PENNINGTON, ULVERSTON PROPOSAL: INSTALLATION OF FIVE 99.5M HIGH (2.3Mw) WIND TURBINES, INCORPORATING THE REMOVAL OF FIVE EXISTING Website Link: TURBINES ON http://www.southlakeland.gov.uk/fastweb/detail.asp?AltRef=SL/2011/0685 HARLOCK HILL, FORMATION OF E325395 N479542 28/03/2013 ON-SITE ACCESS TRACKS, ASSOCIATED INFRASTRUCTURE WORKS AND CARRIAGEWAY WIDENING WORKS MR MATT RUSSELL SUMMARY: This application seeks permission for the removal of the five existing 53 metre high turbines and replacement with five turbines, which would have a maximum height of 99.5 metres to blade tip. It straddles the administrative boundaries of Barrow Borough Council and South Lakeland District Council. Planning applications detailing the full scheme have been submitted to both authorities. Two of the turbines would be located in South Lakeland and three would be within Barrow Borough. A site visit was undertaken in October last year and this application was deferred from the October Committee Meeting so that the developer could submit further information in support of the application relating to the visual impact from dwelling houses. The report at that time recommended refusal for three reasons: adverse impact on the landscape, adverse impact on living conditions and adverse visual impact on the footpath users of Mean Moor. In addition to the additional information submitted by the applicant, two planning appeal decisions have been drawn to the officer’s attention, GlaxoSmithKline have written stating that they wish to source electricity from the turbines and an independent assessment of the LVIA and the Galpin audit report thereon has been received.

  • Kents Bank to Cove Well, Silverdale
    www.gov.uk/englandcoastpath England Coast Path Stretch: Silecroft to Silverdale Report SCS 6: Kents Bank to Cove Well, Silverdale Part 6.1: Introduction Start Point: Kents Bank (Grid reference: SD 3969 7526) End Point: Cove Well, Silverdale (Grid reference: SD 4567 7551) Relevant Maps: SCS 6a to SCS 6e 6.1.1 This is one of a series of linked but legally separate reports published by Natural England under section 51 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, which make proposals to the Secretary of State for improved public access along and to this stretch of coast between Silecroft and Silverdale. 6.1.2 This report covers length SCS 6 of the stretch, which is the coast between Kents Bank and Cove Well, Silverdale. It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 6.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll-back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.
