We have been instructed to submit a response to Charnwood Borough Council's (the "Council") consultation on the draft Charnwood Local Plan 2019-36 (the "Draft Plan"). Responses are invited by 16 December, and this response is therefore submitted in time. Our client has serious concerns with the limits to development proposed for Queniborough, and requests that the Draft Plan is amended around the curtilage of Old Hall, to retain the existing limits to development, and to retain the Old Hall within the settlement boundary. The reasons for the requested amendment are set out below. We would note at the outset that our client as landowner was not consulted on the proposals that directly affect their property. This is contrary to guidance in the UK Government's Planning Practice Guidance, which states: "At an early stage in the plan-making process strategic policy-making authorities will need to work alongside infrastructure providers, service delivery organisations, other strategic bodies such as Local Enterprise Partnerships, developers, landowners and site promoters.
