Cornwall County Councillor Chris Batters gave a report covering the following: -Confirmed Ruthern Bridge will be closed 20thth October to 31st October 2014 for essential repair work there was comment in the room that future developments may prove otherwise -The recent Withiel newsletter item with regards to Cornwall Council making an application for twelve wind turbines. He confirmed that to verify this point, he produced the newsletter and showed it to the chief executive of Cornwall Council Andrew Kerr who read it and his reply was to advise there are no such applications going in at present whatsoever. However, there was comment in the room from a member of the public that future developments may prove otherwise. Cllr Kikby welcomed MP Dan Rogerson to the meeting and invited him to take questions from the councillors and members of the public. Page 1 of 3 The first question was taken on renewable energy and wind turbines in particular. Mr Rogerson acknowleged there was a proliferation of turbines in Cornwall and Withiel parish in particular, as well as solar farms. He advised that the unitary authority was now taking a more structured approach across the county with regard to siting new installations but had to keep in view its obligation to ensuring renewable energy is generated in line with central policy. He advised that whist alternatiuve technologies such as geothermal, wave and swell power were being investigated these are proving more expensive and the government wish to maintain affordable energy costs for the consumer. On wider discussion it was also acknowledged that there is no perfect solution to renewable energy generation, where in Cornwall it is at the expense of agricultural land and agricultural output but other parts of the UK being zoned for fracking or power station developments. Also it was acknowledged that whilst the UK's preference to use renewable generation this was probably significantly outweighed globally with other countries still investing heavily in carbon fuelled solutions on a vast scale. The second question wasraised on rural boadband. Mr Rogerson stated he was committed to to work wth Withiel and maintain focus and pressure to to push the affordable service forward. He also acknowledged that the local mobile phone signal was poor and agian gave a committment to stay close to latest technologies to ensure these provided an improvement to local service and to maintain contact with the parish going forward. Cllr Kirkby thanked Mr Rogerson for his attendance and he left the meeting. A member of the public, Ms Sharon Barnes raised a pre planning application in respect of a property at Inches. She was thanked and invited to put fuller proposals to the council in due course. 327/14 To consider responses from Neighbourhood Development Plan questionnaires recently circulated and to agree follow up action. Cllr Kirkby advised that 82 responses had been received to the date of the meeting, representing approx 50% of parish households, and presented a brief analysis based on 75 forms returned. 61 responses were in favour of producing a plan, 5 against and 9 blank returns. It was agreed that the decisioning to be made going forward was to either set up a neighbour hood forum and for the next 2 or 3 months, continue fact finding to consider the way forward with a plan or at that time use the information in a different way. It was proposed by Cllr Kirkby and seconded by Cllr Shearer that now with a mandate to proceed, that a finite framework be produced to include the required finance be presented to the council at the November meeting. Agreed unanimously. Cllr Nott- Bower joined the meeting. 328/14 Planning Application PA14/08394 – Applicant: C Moore, Location – Land West Of Moor View Inchs Bodmin Cornwall .

  • January 2018 Planning Matters in Cornwall – Or Does
    1 FROM YOUR OWN CORRESPONDENTS AN UPDATE FROM CORNWALL ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY’S AREA REPRESENTATIVES Opinions in these articLes are those of the author and shouLd not be assumed to be those of CornwaLL ArchaeoLogicaL Society. JANUARY 2018 This month: PLANNING MATTERS IN CORNWALL – OR DOES IT? ROLLING STONES IN HAYLE AND ST COLUMB STONE PUZZLES UPDATE FROM THE LIZARD A MUTE STONE SPEAKS PLANNING MATTERS IN CORNWALL – OR DOES IT? At its simplest, planning should weigh the wishes of an applicant against the wider interests of society. The latter comprises many factors, one of which should be the historic environment. But is this always happening in Cornwall? The late Pete Nicholas was not only a CAS trustee but also a determined campaigner in the struggle to make sure that the historic environment was considered properly in planning decisions. In 2015, he wrote to Historic England expressing his opinion that this had not been the case in certain decisions in south-east Cornwall, and that across the county, ‘Planning Officers in Cornwall now consider that Heritage is no longer one of Cornwall's most important assets but an unwanted encumbrance to its development and that the views and advice of their heritage colleagues can be ignored at want.’ A reply sent to him in May 2015 on behalf of the then CEO of Historic England, Simon Thurley, stated that: ‘Historic England shares your anxiety as to whether heritage matters are being given the “great weight” required by the National Planning Policy Framework in Cornish planning decisions, and are concerned about the diminished conservation resource in the principality [sic].
