Application 60898 – Myrtle and Mitchums Meadow Campsite, Moor Lane, Croyde. Email from the Planning Officer advising that an amended plan had been received in respect of this Application. As part of the proposal an Orchard/Wildflower Meadow is proposed instead of the previous grazing land to the front of the site. The applicant has stated that this land could be transferred to the Parish and that they would be willing to make a financial contribution of £12,000 to the Parish for the maintenance/upkeep of this land. Not to prejudice any views the Parish Council may have to the overall acceptability of the proposal, in the event of a planning approval, the Parish Council’s views are requested as to whether it would be willing to take on this land. Councillor Symonds reminded Councillors that the previous Application had been refused and asked for Councillors views, who were all of the same opinion. There was a proposal to respond as follows: ‘We add nothing to and take nothing from our Clerk previous response of the previous Application’. There was a seconder. Unanimously agreed. Mr John Woodward advised that to clarify, the Parish Council was being asked a hypothetical question. Councillor Symonds informed that this Parish Council would not respond to a hypothetical question. It does not fit into the emerging plan and was not put forward as a site in the Parish. 96.1.2 Application 60700 – Residential Development, Croyde Road. Email from the Planning Officer specifically regarding the formal crossing facility required which the Parish Council had previously confirmed it is happy with. At the Planning Committee, this Application was resolved to be approved subject to the signing of a S106 and for details of a formal crossing facility to be provided. The Minutes of the Committee require the Local Highway Authority, Ward Member, Parish and Council to be happy with the crossing facility. The Planning Officer had provided an amended plan of the proposed crossing facility, which has come about through further discussions with the Local Highway Authority as to its required specifications. Page 3 of 8 Minutes of Georgeham Parish Council Meeting held on 20.12.16 Confirmation from the Parish Council was requested that it is happy with the proposed crossing facility. It was understood that the Ward Member and Local Highway Authority are in agreement with the facility as proposed on the submitted plan. It was noted that the Committee Minutes require only acceptance to the proposed crossing facility and to no other matter relating to the proposed residential development including associated planning obligations which have previously been debated by Members and considered to be acceptable. The decision taken relating to the crossing facility had to be made on its own planning merits and not subject to any other matter. There had been numerous meetings with the applicant in connection with the Section 106 Agreement. This item was deferred for a meeting in early January so that dialogue with District Councillor Mrs Meeting Barker can be held as Councillors felt the benefit of her guidance would be beneficial. in January 96.2 Planning Applications. Clerk 61969 Retrospective application for extension & alterations to dwelling (amended drawings) at Dunedin, Croyde. There was a proposal to respond as follows: We are not at ease that we understand what the amendments are and that we cannot make a consultee response. We would like you to furnish the Parish Council with the exact details so that a decision can be made at the next meeting. There was a seconder. Unanimously agreed. 62143 Erection of 3 holiday lodges in connection with the Riding School business at Higher Roylands Riding Stables, Croyde. It was resolved to recommend approval. 62198 First floor extension to dwelling at Woodstock, Croyde. It was resolved to recommend approval. 62213 Demolition of existing & erection of new dwelling at Marigold Cottage, Croyde. It was resolved to recommend approval. Applications received after the Agenda was sent. 61690 First floor extension to pub to create additional kitchen area (amended plans & ownership certificate) at Kings Arms, Chapel Street, Georgeham. It was resolved to recommend approval. 62260 Siting of one electrical distribution box at land off of Stentaway Lane, Putsborough. Mr A Gordon-Lee addressed the meeting on behalf of the applicant advising there had been a lot of misunderstanding about whether the box was under permitted development rights carried out by Western Power Distribution or if it was the landowner. The Application had been made due to the Appeal and Enforcement Notice and it was felt better to make another Application. Mr Gordon-Lee continued by saying it was really so objectionable having removed 6 poles across the skyline and a similar effect at Down End, so that one small distribution box that could have gone on a pole would have been permitted development rights. The applicant wishes to exercise his 28 day camping right. If he went for a full campsite it would involve a big highway input. A little prefabricated hut which holds the Western Power Distribution switching gear and distribution panel has to be that size to comply with ever increasing health and safety rules. The agent has a meeting with Western Power Distribution and North Devon Council Planning Manager to discuss objectors’ comments. The Applicant deals with moving the distribution box over the top of the skyline so that Page 4 of 8 Minutes of Georgeham Parish Council Meeting held on 20.12.16 it cannot be seen by other properties which is an attempt to address the concerns and any other fears are not relevant to this Application. A huge improvement had been made by removing the 6 poles, paid for by the applicant for which no credit has been given. Mr Gordon-Lee felt the Application was within permitted development rights but felt it was better to submit an Application rather than risk a High Court action.

In connection with the sign, I asked about planning permission which was acknowledged as necessary.

Recommendation: It is recommended that no Modification Orders be made in respect of Proposals 22 and 28, as shown on drawings HTM/PROW/13/48 and HTM/PROW/13/54. 1. Summary This report examines two Schedule 14 applications arising from Definitive Map Review in the Parish of Georgeham in the District of North Devon. Six proposals were previously reported to the June 2013 Committee, while a further eight proposals were previously reported to the March 1999 Committee and another ten proposals to the September 2002 Committee. The remaining proposal will be referred to a subsequent Committee meeting. 2.
