Planning Applications Report Planning and Highways Committee Planning Applications Report Planning and Highways Committee 30 November 2006 Bolton Council has approved a Guide to Good Practice for Members and Officers Involved in the Planning Process. Appendix 1 of the Guide sets down guidance on what should be included in Officer Reports to Committee on planning applications. This Report is written in accordance with that guidance. Copies of the Guide to Good Practice are available from the Development and Regeneration Department, Town Hall, Bolton. Bolton Council also has a Code of Practice for publicising planning applications and other submissions for approval. As part of this Code, neighbour notification letters will have been sent to all owners and occupiers whose premises adjoin the site of these applications. In residential areas, or in areas where there are dwellings in the vicinity of these sites, letters will also have been sent to all owners and occupiers of residential land or premises, which directly overlook a proposed development. The plans in this report have been annotated with the symbol ● to show where a letter of objection has been received from an owner or occupier of a property shown on the Report Plan. The plans in this report have been annotated with the symbol % to show where a letter of support has been received from an owner or occupier of a property shown on the Report Plan. The plans in the report are for location only and are not to scale. The application site will generally be in the centre of the plan edged with a bold line.

The Council has provided a screening opinion in accordance with the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) (England and Wales) Regulation 1999 and the Council confirmed that in exercise of the powers conferred by regulations 5(1) and 5(4) of the 1999 Regulations, it is considered that the development for which planning permission is to be sought as described above is not EIA development. Proposal The Applicant originally submitted a Reserved Matters application in January 2006 in accordance with the outline planning permission granted previously, however due to the need to make changes to the layout as a result of more accurate tree surveys, the proposal is now a full application. The proposal has been subject to a number of significant changes at the request of Council Officers. The application details the creation of a new central point of vehicular access serving a new residential development and now comprises the following: 16 detached dwellings (five separate house types): • 9, two storey, four-bedroomed dwellings; • 4, two-and-a-half storey (accommodation in the roofspace with dormers to the front and velux lights to the rear), five-bedroomed dwellings; • 3, part two/part three storey, four-bedroomed dwellings; • Each property with off-street parking for minimum two vehicles and up to four spaces including double garages 5 70 apartments within 6 buildings: • 38 one-bedroomed apartments; 32 two-bedroomed apartments; • 70 resident parking spaces and 8 visitor parking spaces; • Block 1 and 6 – part two, part three storeys; • Block 2 – three storeys; • Block 3 – three storeys; • Block 4 – two storeys; • Block 5 – part two, part three storeys Materials: • Red facing bricks; • Marley smooth grey roof tiles; • Artstone heads, cills and quoins; • White render to part of apartment buildings; • Stained softwood windows and doors; • Tarmac roads with block paved parking courts and courtyard to apartments; Access The Applicant proposes a distinctive character and identity to the development influenced by the significant number of protected trees. The proposed internal roads are not therefore to adoptable standards with regard to their dimensions and provision of footways, although the Applicant has ensured that the development is serviceable by emergency and refuse vehicles, including the provision of timber bin stores and hard surfaced bin collection points for the apartments. The Applicant has sought to provide off-road pedestrian footways where possible and at the request of Council Officers, has agreed to provide a footpath strategy for the site to ensure the safety of pedestrians. In accordance with the previous outline planning permissions on the site, the Applicant will be required to provide appropriate engineered access to the site including visibility, a footway across the Hospital Road site frontage and closure/making good of existing access points. Landscaping and Layout The Applicant’s proposed layout has been primarily influenced by protected trees, the majority of which, particularly to the boundaries of the site, are being retained in accordance with detailed Tree Assessment Reports. The majority of protected trees being removed are within the vicinity of Plots 1-3, 11, 14-16 and the southern part of Apartment Building No.1. Some of the trees being removed are not protected. The Applicant has also agreed to retain the boundary wall and repair it where required, including reusing the stone piers. A hard and soft landscaping scheme including planting plan, will be secured by planning condition. The detached properties will be open plan to the front with 1.8 metres high fencing between. Levels The proposal seeks to sensitively arrange residential units and roads around protected trees with minimum disturbance to levels where trees are to be retained. A number of retaining walls are required to achieve this ranging in height from 0.45 metres to 3.0 6 metres in height. Those parts of the site around the existing access road and plateau where the former main building was sited remain largely unchanged. To the south east corner of the site a minor ‘cut’ operation is required to accommodate Plots 13-16. The largest change in levels takes place to the west and northwest corner of the site where existing levels fall from the main plateau, 7 metres initially and then a further 5 metres to a low point on the site adjacent to the Conningsby Close public open space, beyond which the levels rise again to Conningsby Close itself. This area is known to collect water and the Applicant proposes a Land Drainage System, the details of which will be secured by planning condition. The proposed layout includes a ‘fill’ operation here to accommodate Plots 5-9 and the Apartment Building No.6 in the northwest corner. Whilst levels on the boundary will remain unchanged due to the need to retain protected trees, internally levels will be raised by up to 4 metres where the southern part of Apartment Building No.6 is proposed and up to 2.75 metres where Plot 9 is proposed. This will also be the location of a number of retaining walls between 2.7 and 3 metres in height. The remaining Plots and Apartments will be sited on existing levels. Wildlife The Applicant has almost completed demolition of the former main building ‘by hand’ in order to minimise any disturbance to bats. Bat surveys in March and November revealed no evidence of roosting bats although it is acknowledged that the site, including Gatehouse building and certain trees, have some roosting and hibernation potential and provide good foraging for Common Pipestrelle.

    318 SHORTER CONTRIBUTIONS An Early Roman Fort at Thirkleby, North Yorkshire By MARTIN MILLETT and RICHARD BRICKSTOCK ABSTRACT This paper reports the discovery through aerial photography of a Roman fort at Thirkleby, near Thirsk in North Yorkshire. It appears to have two structural phases, and surface finds indicate that it dates from the Flavian period. The significance of its location on the intersection of routes north–south along the edge of the Vale of York and east–west connecting Malton and Aldborough is discussed in the context of Roman annexation of the North. Keywords: Thirkleby; Roman fort; Roman roads; Yorkshire INTRODUCTION The unusually dry conditions in northern England in the summer of 2018 produced a substantial crop of new sites discovered through aerial photography. By chance, the Google Earth satellite image coverage for parts of Yorkshire has been updated with a set of images taken on 1 July 2018, during the drought. Amongst the numerous sites revealed in this imagery – often in areas where crop-marks are rarely visible – is a previously unknown Roman fort (FIG.1).1 The site (SE 4718 7728) lies just to the west of the modern A19, on the southern side of the Thirkleby beck at its confluence with the Carr Dike stream, about 6 km south-east of Thirsk. It is situated on level ground at a height of about 32 m above sea level on the southern edge of the flood plain of the beck, which is clearly visible on the aerial images. A further narrow relict stream bed runs beside it to the south-east.

    ENVIRONMENT AGENCY NORTH EAST REGION RIVER QUALITY SURVEY GQA ASSESSMENT 1998 DALES AREA FRESHWATER RIVERS AND CANALS RIVER REACH CLASSIFICATION SUMMARY 1990-9 JULY 1999 E n v ir o n m e n t A g e n c y NATIONAL LIBRARY & INFORMATION SERVICE NORTH EAST REGION Tyneside House. Skinnerbum Road, Newcastle Business Park. Newcastle-Upon-Tyne NE4 7AR INTRODUCTION This document contains the derived General Quality Assessment (GQA) of the rivers in Dales Area for the year 1998. The grade is based on an amalgamation of three years data and thus reflects the river chemistry over the period 1996-8. The parameters used in the classification are Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and Ammonia and a monitoring frequency of at least monthly is preferred. The GQA results have been calculated by the National Centre for Environmental Data and Surveillance at Twerton. There have been some discrepancies between their database of sites and ours, always a problem when such huge blocks of information are transmitted backwards and forwards. This resulted in no GQA grade being calculated for some sites. Where this has occurred I have filled in the missing grade by calculating it locally. In such circumstances this is identified by the grade being represented in lower case. You will notice that this document is slightly different to those produced in previous years in that it does not contain any maps. There are a number of reasons for this but primarily it was decided to disseminate the tabular information rapidly after it’s return from the national centre out to the areas and produce a more in depth analysis of the information later on in the year.

  • Section 19 Report on the February Flooding Events in the Aire Catchment
    North Yorkshire County Council Business and Environmental Services Executive Members 27 November 2020 Section 19 Report on the February Flooding Events in the Aire Catchment Report of the Assistant Director – Highways and Transportation 1.0 Purpose of Report 1.1 To inform the Corporate Director, BES and BES Executive members of the response of Risk Management Authorities to the significant flood events which occurred, affecting Selby, Hambleton and Craven districts and Harrogate Borough. 1.2 To seek the approval of the Corporate Director, BES, in consultation with BES Executive Members for the publication of the Section 19 Flood Risk Investigation Report, on the NYCC Website. 2.0 Flood reporting requirements of NYCC in its capacity as Lead Local Flood Authority 2.1 Section 19 of the Flood and Water Management Act (2010) (FWMA) requires Lead Local Flood Authorities (LLFA’s) to investigate flooding incidents. 2.2 When a flooding incident has occurred, the Act requires LLFA’s to investigate which Risk Management Authorities have relevant flood risk management functions, and whether each of those Risk Management Authorities has exercised, or is proposing to exercise, those functions in response to the flood. Where a LLFA carries out an investigation, it is required to publish the results of its investigation and notify any relevant Risk Management Authorities. 2.3 North Yorkshire County Council’s Flood Risk Management Team investigates all reported incidents of flooding accordingly, in a manner proportionate to the specific characteristics of the incident. The nature of the investigation may vary from a site visit and a data collection exercise, allowing officers to understand responsibilities and any action required by the relevant Risk Management Authorities, to a more formal investigation to be published under the FWMA (2010).
