I have in the past been a member of the RTPI’s Consultancy Panel advising the Institute on consultancy matters. 1.3 I am the Managing Director of my Company, Collins and Coward Ltd, planning and development consultants which I established with fellow directors in January 2007. Prior to that I was a Director with CGMS for a period of two years and immediately prior to that I was a Director and Head of Planning and Development at Atisreal (formerly Weatherall Green & Smith) where I was employed for 18 years. I started my career as a town planner with Basildon Development Corporation and the New Towns Commission in 1977. 1.4 Throughout my 43-year career I have gained extensive experience in all types of planning and development matters, acting for both the private and public sectors. I have dealt with a considerable number of appeals. 1.5 I have advised both private and public-sector clients including the Government in respect of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and policy matters relating to housing. I have advised Government departments, quangos, police authorities, health authorities and other public-sector organisations including local authorities. My private sector clients include multi-national corporations, FTSE 100 companies and private individuals including overseas royalty. I have advised many clients in respect of planning matters dealing with residential development. 1.6 I confirm that I was first instructed in January 2018 in respect of the project for an MSA at Ripon. I have been advising Moto Hospitality Limited, Granada (the predecessor of Moto) and Pavilion (acquired by Moto) in respect of MSA planning for over 30 years. 1.7 My evidence deals with appeal proposals and their context. I assess the consideration of the appeal application by Harrogate Borough Council (“the Council”). I then analyse the Development Plan and other policy matters before turning to consider the Council’s reason for refusal. I then assess the planning issues raised by other third parties. I conclude by assessing the Development Plan and other material considerations and the planning balance. My evidence needs to be read alongside that of Sue Illman of Illman Young and Daniel Baird of Daniel Baird Soil Consultancy Ltd. 1.8 In the preparation of this evidence and in my conduct at the forthcoming inquiry, I have and will continue to adhere to the rules of conduct of the professional bodies of which I am a member. The evidence which I provide for these Appeal Inquiries (reference APP/E2734/W/20/3261729 & 3245778) is true and is given in accordance with the requirements of my professional bodies. __________________________________________________________________________________ 3 | P a g e Motorway Service Area Junction 50 of A1(M) Proof of Evidence of AFR Collins Moto Hospitality Ltd Collins & Coward Ltd __________________________________________________________________________________ 1.9 I confirm that I have made clear which facts and matters referred to in this report are within my own knowledge and which are not.

Provision of landscaping, infrastructure and ancillary works” on land adjoining the A1(M) at Junction 50. 2.2 The Council’s Planning Committee resolved to refuse permission on 6 October 2020 and the Decision Notice was issued on 9 October 2020. The application was refused for a single reason: “The proposal is outside development limits and represents an unsustainable development that would result in a significant encroachment into open countryside causing harm to the landscape in conflict with Policies EC3 (A & C), GS3 and NE4 of the Harrogate District Local Plan”. 2.3 The Committee Report set out the basis for the consideration of the proposal under the following heads: (i) whether there is a need for an additional MSA; (ii) the impact on the highway network and highway safety; (iii) the impact on the character and appearance of the area; (iv) impact on heritage assets; (v) the loss of agricultural land; (vi) water supply, flood risk, foul, and surface water drainage; (vii) ecology; and (viii) employment. 2.4 The Committee Report then goes on to confirm there were no development management or policy issues in respect of the following matters: (i) the impact on the highway network and highway safety including travel planning; (ii) impact on heritage assets; (iii) the loss of agricultural land; (iv) water supply, flood risk, foul, and surface water drainage; (v) ecology, nature conservation and arboriculture; (vi) socio-economics including employment; (vii) noise, air quality, dust, health, and pollution control 2.5 These matters that have been agreed are confirmed in the Statement of Common Ground with the Council dated 8 January 2021. __________________________________________________________________________________ 5 | P a g e Motorway Service Area Junction 50 of A1(M) Proof of Evidence of AFR Collins Moto Hospitality Ltd Collins & Coward Ltd __________________________________________________________________________________ 2.6 Insofar that matters of agricultural land quality, socio-economic benefits and net gain for biodiversity are concerned the Council in its Supplemental Statement of Case dated 22 December 2020 has accepted these are not matters giving rise to any planning objection. 2.7 This Appeal has been conjoined with a proposed MSA known as the Vale of York (LPA REF: 18/00123/EIAMAJ & PINS REF: APP/E2734/W/20/3245778).

Terraces and channels, most of which are now relict features well above the altitude of the present river, attest to the impacts of massive meltwater discharge and deposition of sand and gravel outwash, and dynamic river regimes with rapid incision. Through field survey, we have created a detailed geomorphological map of these landforms and glacial and fluvioglacial surface deposits, as well as the terraces and palaeochannels that were abandoned by the river due to avulsion Citation: Innes, J.; Mitchell, W.; and incision-driven course changes.

As you read on you may question and you may criticize, but hopefully you will understand, they are my feelings only, please respect them. For a big part of her life my Mum had an illness disorder known as “Bi-polar or Manic depression” The illness tends to run in families and appears to have a genetic link in fact this illness is and was prevalent in the Daulton family. So now what are you thinking? Some of you will immediately say “oh gosh” I don’t want to know and put this away in the too hard file. Some of you will read on through curiosity and respect and then file it. But I sincerely hope some of you will show a genuine interest and will openly and with deep concern continue on with your learning of this illness.

  • Subsidence Hazards Caused by the Dissolution of Permian Gypsum in England: Geology, Investigation and Remediation
    SUBSIDENCE HAZARDS CAUSED BY THE DISSOLUTION OF PERMIAN GYPSUM IN ENGLAND: GEOLOGY, INVESTIGATION AND REMEDIATION A H Cooper, British Geological Survey, Kingsley Dunham Centre, Keyworth, Nottingham NG12 5GG. This is a recompiled version of the final draft of the published paper, it is presented with coloured versions of the figures and may differ slighly from the published edited version. Please respect copyright of BGS/NERC and refer to the final published version if you wish to quote the work. Published as: Cooper, AH. 1998. Subsidence hazards caused by the dissolution of Permian gypsum in England: geology, investigation and remediation. 265–275 in: Geohazards in engineering geology, Maund, JG, Eddleston, M (eds.). Geological Society of London. Special Publications in Engineering Geology, 15. ABSTRACT About every three years natural catastrophic subsidence, caused by gypsum dissolution, occurs in the vicinity of Ripon, North Yorkshire, England. Holes up to 35 m across and 20 m deep have appeared without warning. In the past 150 years, 30 major collapses have occurred, and in the last ten years the resulting damage to property is estimated at about £1,000,000. Subsidence, associated with the collapse of caves resulting from gypsum dissolution in the Permian rocks of eastern England, occurs in a belt about 3 km wide and over 100 km long. Gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) dissolves rapidly in flowing water and the cave systems responsible for the subsidence are constantly enlarging, causing a continuing subsidence problem. Difficult ground conditions are associated with caves, subsidence breccia pipes (collapsed areas of brecciated and foundered material), crown holes and post-subsidence fill deposits.
