  • C/R/D Summary Skeleton Document
    Application No: 14/0128N Location: Land to the north of Main Road, Wybunbury Proposal: Outline planning application with all matters reserved (apart from access) for up to 40 dwellings, incidental open space, landscaping and associated ancillary works. Applicant: The Church Commissioners for England Expiry Date: 10-Mar-2015 SUMMARY The proposed development would be contrary to Policy NE.2 and RES.5 and the development would result in a loss of open countryside. In this case Cheshire East cannot demonstrate a 5 year supply of deliverable housing sites. However, as Wybunbury Moss is identified as a Special Area of Conservation and a Ramsar Site the NPPF states that Wybunbury Moss should be given the same protection as a European site and an assessment under the Habitats Directives is required. As a result the presumption in favour of sustainable development (paragraph 14 of the NPPF) does not apply to this application. In this case specific policies in this Framework indicate development should be restricted on this site and as such the application is recommended for refusal due to its impact upon Wybunbury Moss. RECOMMENDATION REFUSE REASON FOR REFERRAL This application is referred to Strategic Planning Board as it includes an Environmental Statement. The application is also subject to a call in request from Cllr Clowes which requests that the application is referred to Committee for the following reasons: ‘This application has been brought to my attention by Wybunbury Parish Council and Hough and Chorlton Parish Council, together with the adjacent neighbours and the Wybunbury Moss Voluntary Warden. All parties object to this application on the following material grounds:- 1.

Thank you for joining us today. My name is Neil Ward. I am the Lead Assistant Commissioner appointed by the Boundary Commission to conduct two things: To conduct the hearings across the whole of the North West into their Initial Proposals for the revised parliamentary boundaries for the North West region and, along with two fellow assistant Commissioners, Nicholas Elliott and Graeme Clarke, to take on board all the representations that are either made in the hearings or in written representations and to consider, in the light of them, whether we think it is appropriate to recommend changes, revised proposals to the Boundary Commission on their Initial Proposals. I should say that I am, in a sense, essentially independent of the Boundary Commission. Although I am appointed by them, I had no hand in the drafting of the proposals and I received them the same time as everyone else and I am, in a sense, an honest broker in this process, considering whether or not changes ought to be made. This is the second day of the Liverpool hearing. Just a couple of words on process.

  • Wybunbury Parish Council Comments to the Proposed Changes to the Submitted Local Plan
    Wybunbury Parish Council Comments to the Proposed Changes to the Submitted Local Plan Wybunbury PC wishes to make comment on the following to items. 1.0 The allocation of housing proposed in the submitted local plan for the Wybunbury/Shavington Triangle. 2.0 The Provision of a Green Belt/Green Gap for the area enclosed between the A51 & the Newcastle Rd from the Cheer brook Roundabout. 1.0 Wybunbury/ Shavington Triangle. The parish council contends that the total number of properties proposed in the revised local plan (400), contradicts its self in that the land shown on the plan is less than the original submission by the developer & approved by the strategic planning committee (360) for the reduced area now shown on the plan. This level of density was considered by the planning officer to be the correct density considering it is on edge of the current developed area & that the site is with in an existing outer edge development & needs to show sympathy & character to the existing perimeter properties which are a mixture of detached & semi-detached houses & bungalows. The housing density of the approved application (currently under construction) was considered at some length, at that time, by the Cheshire East Design Officer and Flood & Drainage Officer (in accordance with NPPF paras: 61, 66) where the significant constraints of this frequently water-logged green field site require robust SUDS systems, water storage and green corridor solutions. Density and housing design (specifically greater height of buildings towards the center of the site with lower level homes towards the site perimeters were expressly chosen “…to respond to local character and history, and reflect the identity of local surroundings and materials” (NPPF: para 58, bullet 4).
