  • PLANNING APPLICATIONS Submitted By: DIRECTOR of COMMUNITY SERVICES
    DECISION RIBBLE VALLEY BOROUGH COUNCIL REPORT TO PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE Agenda Item No meeting date: THURSDAY, 13 NOVEMBER 2014 title: PLANNING APPLICATIONS submitted by: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICES PLANNING APPLICATIONS UNDER THE TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1990: APPLICATION NO: 3/2014/0326/P (GRID REF: SD 370686 441240) PROPOSED NEW AGRICULTURAL BUILDING AT WITHGILL FARM, WITHGILL FOLD, WITHGILL, CLITHEROE, BB7 3LW PARISH COUNCIL: The Parish Council comments that this application represents a further unwelcome extension to this large scale agricultural development. Whilst the additional building is modest in the context of the existing footprint, the Parish Council are concerned that the 10% increase in the size of the milking herd will inevitably result in additional vehicle movements to transport feed and milk along narrow country lanes. However, of greater concern is the additional slurry generated, which will have to be transported even further afield to be spread on farmland across the valley, again, creating additional tractor/tanker movements travelling even further distances. The development is now far larger than anyone envisaged and we feel that it is now appropriate to cap the project at its current scale on env ironmental, quality of life, visual and transport grounds. ENVIRONMENT Comments that, in view of the percentage (10%) increase in DIRECTORATE the number of cattle on s ite, he does not consider that the (COUNTY SURVEYOR): additional traffic generated by the proposal would be so significant as to warrant a recommendation of refusal. ENVIRONMENT AGENCY: The Environment Agency initially objected to the application as submitted on the basis that no assessment of environmental impacts had been provided.
