2019/1200/FUL LOCATION Site of Former Greaves Hall Hospital Greaves Hall Avenue Banks Lancashire No.4 APPLICATION NO. 2019/1200/FUL LOCATION Site Of Former Greaves Hall Hospital Greaves Hall Avenue Banks Lancashire PROPOSAL Full planning application for 12 residential dwellings and erection of noise barrier. APPLICANT Seddon Homes Limited WARD North Meols PARISH North Meols TARGET DATE 9th April 2020 1.0 REFERRAL 1.1 This application was to be determined under the Council's delegation scheme, however, Councillor Lockie has requested it be referred to Committee to consider the impact on the adjacent Stone Masters business and noise on future occupiers. 2.0 SUMMARY 2.1 The proposed additional 12 apartments on this site is considered acceptable. I am satisfied that the proposed development would allow for the provision and retention of reasonable levels of amenity for the occupants of future and neighbouring properties. I consider that the future business operations at Granite House will not be unduly restricted as a result of the proposed development and I find that the proposed development is compliant with the Local Plan in respect of flood risk and drainage. 3.0 RECOMMENDATION: APPROVE subject to conditions. 4.0 THE SITE 4.1 The application site relates to a recently approved residential development which is currently under construction located on the eastern side of the village of Banks on a former brownfield hospital site of approx. 6.5 Ha. It is located to the south of Aveling Drive and north-east of Greaves Hall Avenue being accessible from both roads. 4.2 The residential site is bordered by existing housing to the south (Westerdale Drive), north and north-west (Abington Drive). A school and community leisure centre lie to the south- west and open agricultural land to the east. Within the centre of the site is an existing employment business – Granite House. The site subject of this application is located to the north of Granite House, bordering their car park and delivery area. 5.0 PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 5.1 It is proposed to erect 12 dwellings on an area of the site previously approved for landscaping, more-or-less in the middle of the wider development site. The 12 dwellings comprise three blocks of 2-bed apartments which are two-storeys high and have the appearance of three pairs of semi-detached dwellings. All are proposed to be market dwellings and the design and scale are similar to semi-detached dwellings already approved elsewhere on the site. Each dwelling includes two parking spaces, mainly within a long strip of parking to the rear of the dwellings, although there are 4 individual spaces on the frontage of the site. There are no private gardens associated with the apartments but there is a small grassed area around each block and a triangular parcel of shared garden adjacent to the parking area. The site also includes the erection of an acoustic fence across the southern boundary. 6.0 PREVIOUS RELEVANT DECISIONS 6.1 2019/1199/FUL – PENDING CONSIDERATION - Full planning application for the erection of 15 residential dwellings. 6.2 2019/1201/FUL – Full planning application for 8 residential dwellings.

Concerns relate to: - the development is too close and will cause Granite House undue issues with the Council and future residents; - rights over the land subject of the application will not be transferred to the applicant so the development is undeliverable; - an unsubstantiated noise complaint has already been received from an existing surrounding resident further away from Granite House than the proposed development site, so there is the potential for regular complaints from occupiers of the proposed dwellings which would impact upon the existing business operations; - the applicant's noise report uses the wrong methodology for assessing the impact of activities at Granite House and therefore the applicant has not demonstrated that the proposed dwellings will not be put at unacceptable risk from, or adversely affected by, unacceptable levels of noise in accordance with the NPPF; - the applicant's noise report identifies exceedance of its own, excessive criteria within the gardens of the proposed dwellings; - lack of suitable assessment prevents the LPA from adequately assessing the impact of noise on the development and thus determining the application in line with the NPPF; - the information within the applicant's report does support the conclusion that the development will be put at unacceptable risk from elevated sound levels which will result in a Significant Observed Adverse Effect Level as determined by the Noise Policy Statement for England and a significant adverse impact when an appropriate BS4142:2014 assessment method is applied; - previous concerns raised in the determination of the Reserved Matters approval 2016/0706/ARM still remain valid. 9.0 SUPPORTING INFORMATION 9.1 The application is supported by the following information: Planning, Design and Access Statement Flood Risk Assessment Environmental Noise Report Viability Assessment 10.0 RELEVANT PLANNING POLICIES 10.1 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), the National Planning Policy Guidance (NPPG) and the West Lancashire Local Plan (2012-2027) (WLLP) provide the policy framework against which the development will be assessed. 10.2 The

  • 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.
