The intention of the consultation was to update waste policy to eventually replace existing national waste planning policy contained in Planning Policy Statement 10 referred to above, and for the updated policy to sit alongside the proposed new Waste Management Plan for England, published for consultation by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs on 15 July 2013. • Proposed Submission Local Plan Strategy – ‘Lichfield District Local Plan Strategy (July 2012)’ - published on the 30th July for formal consultation. A Schedule of Proposed Main Modifications to the Local Plan: Strategy (February 2014) was approved by Full Council on 28 January 2014 and Schedule of Proposed ‘Other/Additional’ Modifications to the Local Plan: Strategy February 2014 published. o Core Policy 3 (Delivering Sustainable Development); o Core Policy 4 (Delivering our Infrastructure); o Policy BE1 (High Quality Development); Relevant Planning History Planning permission was granted for the erection of 4 no. kiosks and 2 no substations (ref. L.12/08/8000 W dated 12 November 2012). Screening Opinion: NO Environmental Statement: YES 2 Consultation Responses Internal The Environmental Advice Team (EAT) – no objection subject to a condition to ensure the compliance with the recommendations in the habitat survey report. Planning Regulation Team – no response. External Environment Agency – no objection. District/Parish Council Lichfield District Council - no response. Curborough Elmhurst Farewell and Chorley Parish Council - no response. Publicity and Representations Site notice: YES Press notice: NO No neighbour notification letters were sent due to the location within a large sewage treatment works and distance from the nearest neighbours. Applicant’s/agent’s submission The applicant has indicated that design work has been undertaken as part of the improvement works associated with planning permission L.12/08/8000 W and it has been identified that the location of the MCC kiosk would need to be 18 metres west of the approved location. This separate application is required due to the change in location as the new location of the MCC kiosk was not within the existing planning permission boundary. The applicant has confirmed that the other works (Primary Settlement Tank, Sludge Plant MCC Kiosk, Final Effluent Kiosk and two substations) permitted in accordance with planning permission L.12/08/8000 W are to be constructed. Key Issues This is an application for the erection of a kiosk (MCC Kiosk) at Lichfield Sewage Treatment Works, Curborough, Lichfield. Having given careful consideration to the application and supporting information, the relevant development plan policies, the other material considerations and the consultation responses referred to above, the key issue is whether the erection of a kiosk (MCC Kiosk) is appropriate in this location in terms of scale and design. 3 The Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Waste Local Plan policy 4.2, Lichfield District Local Plan saved policy E.6; and the emerging Lichfield District Local Plan Policy BE1 and Core Policy 3, all seek to ensure high quality design, protect the amenity of neighbours, protect the rural environment from any unacceptable adverse impacts. No objections were received from consultees or as a result of the site notice. Having regard to the above policies, it is considered that the erection a kiosk located within a large Sewage Treatment Works would not be unacceptable, subject to the imposition of a condition to require the development to be carried out in accordance with the submitted details. Overall Conclusion Overall, as an exercise of judgement, taking the relevant development plan policies as a whole and having given careful consideration to application and supporting information, the consultation responses, and the other material considerations referred to above, it is reasonable to conclude that the application should be permitted, subject to the imposition of a planning condition to require the development to be carried out in accordance with the submitted details.
