AGENDA ITEM: 7 PLANNING COMMITTEE: 25th May 2006 Report Of: Executive Manager Planning and Development Services Contact for further information: J.R.Harrison (Extn.5132) SUBJECT: PLANNING APPLICATIONS No. 1 APPLICATION No. 8/2006/0022 LOCATION Bleak Hall Farm,Bleak Lane,Lathom PROPOSAL Erection of detached dwelling to replace existing holiday flat and residential caravan. APPLICANT Mr & Mrs J Fairclough WARD Newburgh PARISH Lathom 8 WEEKS EXPIRE 03 MAR 2006 1.0 SITE LOCATION PLAN Not to scale. © Crown Copyright. All Rights Reserved. Licence No.100024309. West Lancashire District Council. 2005 2.0 DEFERRAL 2.1 The application was deferred to consider the impact of the proposal on the character of the area. 3.0 PREVIOUS RELEVANT DECISIONS 3.1 8/2005/1157 REFUSED (07.11.05) Erection of detached dwelling to replace existing holiday flat and residential caravan. 3.2 8/2002/1416 GRANTED ( 03.03.03) refurbishment of remaining part of original farmhouse to provide holiday cottage 4.0 OBSERVATIONS OF CONSULTEES 4.1 NATIONAL GRID (20.01.06) - No impact on pipeline 4.2 HEALTH AND SAFETY EXECUTIVE (25.01.06) - Do not advise against the granting of permission on safety grounds 5.0 OTHER REPRESENTATIONS 5.1 I have received 5 letters that state they have no objection to the proposal. 6.0 VIEWS OF PARISH COUNCIL 6.1 LATHOM PARISH COUNCIL (06.02.06) - Cannot see how application differs from previous submission. Object as no special circumstances have been put forward to go against the moratorium. 7.0 OBSERVATIONS OF EXECUTIVE MANAGER PLANNING/DEVELOPMENT SERVICES 7.1 The site at present contains a disused dilapidated building located on the northern side of Bleak Lane. It forms part of a group of buildings in agricultural use. The site is within the Green Belt. It is proposed to erect a dwelling on the site in place of an existing caravan and the dilapidated building. 7.2 The new dwelling would measure approximately 9.8 metes by 7.1 metres with a ridge height of 7.3 metres. It would be sited some 25 metres further into the site than the existing dilapidated building. The siting is closer to the existing caravan, some 3 metres to the front of it. 7.3 Members will note that this is a re-submission of a previous planning application refused by myself in November 2005 under the Council's scheme of delegation. 7.4 In 1971 planning permission was granted for the erection of a new farmhouse (8/5/5822). The building was to replace the original farmhouse, to which this current application relates. This should have been demolished prior to the occupation of the new farmhouse, but due to a 15-year passage of time before this was noted, no enforcement action could be taken. Planning permission was granted in March 2003 for the refurbishment of the remaining part of the original farmhouse to provide a holiday cottage. 7.5 A caravan was sited on the land during the construction of the new farmhouse in the 1970's. This was replaced in 1983 with another caravan and although planning permission has never been applied for the caravan, a permanent residential use has been established by the passage of time. 7.6 The main issue is whether the proposal complies with Policy GB.5 of the Local Plan relating to replacement dwellings in the Green Belt. As the caravan has an established residential use right, Policy DE1 of the Re-Deposit Draft West Lancashire Local Plan is not applicable as any replacement dwelling would not add to the current housing supply. 7.7 The caravan is not constructed of brick, stone or a similar material. Its walls are rendered and its roof is tiled. I consider that it must be regarded as a mobile home. Policy GB.5 states specifically that in order to comply with this policy the existing dwelling must be constructed of brick, stone or a similar material and more specifically must not be a mobile home or a temporary structure. The proposal therefore does not comply with criterion vi of policy GB.5 7.8 The applicants have put forward a justification for this proposal in so much as the existing caravan would be removed along with the remaining parts of the original farmhouse. They consider that when taken together, the removal of these two structures and the replacement of them with one detached dwelling, that the impact upon the openness of the Green Belt would be significantly reduced. In order to demonstrate this, calculations have been submitted which show that the volume of the proposed dwelling would be less than the existing original farmhouse and caravan. 7.9 I do not consider that just the volume needs to be assessed when considering whether or not the replacement dwelling would be materially larger than the structures that it would replace. The fact that two structures are to be replaced by one, in my opinion, cannot be considered as a justification in its own right. 7.10 The overall bulk of the proposed dwelling is significantly more than the structures it would replace, mainly in terms of the additional second floor elements. The caravan is single storey in design and the original farmhouse is almost 5 metres smaller in width than the proposed replacement dwelling. I consider that these factors would result in the replacement dwelling having a materially greater impact on the visual amenity, character and openness of the Green Belt than the existing caravan and building. 7.11 Overall I consider that the proposal does not comply with Policy GB.5 and Policy DS2 of the Re-Deposit Draft West Lancashire Local Plan. 8.0 RECOMMENDATION 8.1 That planning permission be REFUSED for the following reasons: Reasons 1. The proposed development conflicts with Policy GB.5 of the adopted West Lancashire Local Plan relating to the replacement of dwellings in the Green Belt, Policy DS2 of the Re-Deposit Draft West Lancashire Local Plan relating to Protecting the Green Belt and advice given in Planning Policy Guidance Note 2 Green Belts in that the existing caravan is not constructed of brick, stone or similar material and is therefore regarded as a mobile home. 2. The proposed development conflicts with Policy GB.5 of the adopted West Lancashire Local Plan relating to the replacement of dwellings in the Green Belt, Policy DS2 of the Re-Deposit Draft West Lancashire Local Plan relating to Protecting the Green Belt and advice given in Planning Policy Guidance Note 2 Green Belts in that the replacement dwelling would be materially larger than the existing buildings, to the extent that it would detract from the visual amenity, character and openness of the Green Belt.

  • West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 Examination Hearings
    West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 Examination Hearings Council’s Opening Statement (19 February 2013) Cllr Martin Forshaw Portfolio Holder for Planning and Development The Council are pleased to have submitted the West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 Development Plan Document for Examination in Public. The Local Plan has been in preparation since 2007 and gone through several stages of preparation and consultation. Initially, the Council prepared and consulted upon the Issues, Options and Preferred Options of an LDF Core Strategy. This document evolved into a new-style Local Plan in late 2011 in line with emerging government guidance at the time and the Council subsequently prepared and consulted upon the Preferred Options and Publication versions of the Local Plan in 2012. This document has therefore gone through a thorough preparation process and been publicly consulted upon five times between 2008 and 2012. This demonstrates that the council have met all legal requirements in relation to public consultation and the Council consider that all other legal requirements have also been met, including the new Duty to Co-operate. The Council considers that the submitted Local Plan is sound, in that it is: • justified by an adequate, up-to-date and relevant evidence base in line with paragraph 158 of the NPPF; • effective because it is deliverable and informed by joint working on cross-boundary strategic priorities; • consistent with the new National Planning Policy Framework; and • based on a strategy to meet objectively-assessed development and infrastructure requirements. The Council believes that the submitted Local Plan strikes an appropriate balance between enabling new development to meet objectively-assessed needs and preserving and enhancing the rural character and environment of the Borough.
