Delegated Report Local Member’s Interest Cannock Chase Mr. G. Adamson Hednesford Ms. C. Mitchell and Rawnsley SCHEME OF DELEGATION TO OFFICERS WASTE COUNTY MATTER Application No: CH.15/10/779 W (Cannock Chase) Applicant: Severn Trent Water Ltd Description: Improvements to access Location: Brindley Heath Sewage Pumping Station, Rugeley Road, Hednesford, Cannock Summary of the Proposals Planning permission is sought to improve the access to the existing Brindley Heath Sewage Pumping Station (SPS). The access bell mouth would be widened on the north eastern side onto the grass verge and would be surfaced using bitmac surfacing. The area affected is 74 square metres. Site and Surroundings The Brindley Heath SPS is located to the north east of Hednesford Town off the A460 Rugeley Road, from which access to the SPS is gained. The surrounding environment is rural in nature lying adjacent to the Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and SAC. A railway line runs to the west of the SPS. The Development Plan policies relevant to this decision: Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent Joint Waste Local Plan (2010 – 2026) (adopted 22 March 2013): • Policy 3: Criteria for the location of new and enhanced waste management facilities o Policy 3.1 General requirements for new and enhanced facilities • Policy 4: Sustainable design and protection and improvement of environmental quality o Policy 4.1 Sustainable design The Cannock Chase Local Plan (adopted June 2014): 1 • Policy CP1 – Strategy • Policy CP3 – Chase Shaping - Design • Policy CP13 – Cannock Chase Special Area of Conservation • Policy CP14 - Landscape Character and Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Other Material Considerations: • The National Planning Policy Framework o Section 4: Transport o Section 7: Requiring good design o Paragraphs 14 (Presumption in favour of sustainable development); 17 (Core planning principles). • Planning Practice Guidance Relevant Planning History None Screening Opinion: No Environmental Statement: No Consultation Responses Internal Transport Development Control Team (TDC) on behalf of the Highways Authority – no objections and advised that a Minor Works Agreement will be required for works within the limits of the adopted highway. Flood Risk Management Team (FRMT) – no objections. External The Environment Agency (EA) – no objections. District/Parish Council Cannock Chase Council– no comments. Brindley Heath Parish Council – no objections. Publicity and Representations Site notice: YES Press notice: YES No representations have been received. 2 The Applicant’s Case The proposals form a part of the overall ‘Asset Management Plan’ by Severn Trent Water (April 2015 to March 2020), the drivers for which are investment during the period to provide a continuous supply of quality water, dealing effectively with waste water, and promoting an effective regulatory regime. Justification for the proposals relates to the fact that the SPS has a tight turning circle at the access bell mouth which results in the rear wheels of Severn Trent Water’ tankers running over the edge of the grassed verge on the north eastern side when entering the site. This leads to damage to the grass verge. The applicant contends that the widening of the access will provide a safer and easier entrance to the site and allow vehicles to enter and exit the SPS without the need to drive over the grass verge. Key Issues This is an application to improve the access to the Brindley Heath Sewage Pumping Station, off Rugeley Road, Hednesford, Cannock. Having given careful consideration to the application and supporting information, the relevant development plan policies, the other material considerations, and the consultation responses referred to above, the key issues are considered to be: • Permitted Development rights; and, • Design Principles Permitted Development rights Severn Trent Water Ltd as a sewerage undertaker has certain permitted development rights to carry out works at their sewage pumping stations (ref. The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 – Schedule 2, Part 13, Class B). Prior to making the planning application Severn Trent Water Ltd wrote to clarify whether the proposed access improvement would be permitted development under Part 2, Class B and was advised that the proposals were not permitted development as the proposed development would affect a means of access to a highway which is …. a ‘classified road’ namely the A460 (ref: CH.15/06/779 W dated 19 May 2015). Conclusion: In this case planning permission was required for the proposals as the proposals did not constitute Permitted Development. Design Principles Waste Local Plan policy 4.1, Cannock Chase Local Plan (policy CP3), and the NPPF Section 7, seek to ensure that development is of a high quality design, appropriate to the surroundings and respects and integrates with the character and appearance of the locality. The Local Plan policies CP12 and CP13 seek to ensure protection the adjacent Cannock Chase AONB and SAC. 3 The proposed access improvements works would be at ground level and therefore only visible to vehicles travelling along or entering and exiting the SPS. The proposed improvements would widen the access by approximately 2 metres at the widest point near the entrance gates leading to nothing at the point where the access meets with the Rugeley Road. The widened access would be bitmac surfaced and would be generally unobtrusive. No objections have been received from consultees and it is not considered that any landscaping would be required to screen the development. Conclusion: Having regard to the relevant development plan policies, other material considerations and consultation responses, referred to above, it is reasonable to conclude that the proposals are acceptable in terms of design and would have no unacceptable adverse impact in terms of landscape character. Overall Conclusion Overall, as an exercise of judgement, taking the relevant development plan policies as a whole and having given careful consideration to application and supporting information, the consultation responses, and the other material considerations, referred to above, it is reasonable to conclude that planning permission should be granted, subject to the attached planning conditions. Recommendation PERMIT the proposed improvements to access at Brindley Heath Sewage Pumping Station, Rugeley Road, Hednesford, Cannock) subject to the attached conditions.

  • Evidence Base Relating to Cannock Chase Special Area of Conservation
    Version: Final Date: 6th April 2010; (text identical to version of 10th November 2009, but Map 15 added). Recommended citation: Liley, D., Underhill-Day, J., White, J. & Sharp, J. (2009) Evidence Base relating to Cannock Chase SAC and the Appropriate Assessment of Local Authority Core Strategies. Footprint Ecology. Footprint Ecology Evidence Base relating to Cannock Chase SAC and the Appropriate Assessment of Local Authority Core Strategies Summary This report has been commissioned by a consortium of five authorities surrounding or adjacent to Cannock Chase Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The consortium includes four district authorities that are currently preparing individual core strategies as part of their Local Development Frameworks. This report focuses on Cannock Chase SAC, and provides the evidence base necessary for each local authority to complete a Habitat Regulations Assessment of their respective core strategies in relation to Cannock Chase. We assess in detail the likely significant effects, of water abstraction, air quality, and increased recreation pressure on European wildlife sites, that may occur as a result of policies within the respective core strategies. In all three cases adverse effects on the integrity of the SAC are identified. The Habitats Regulations1 stipulate that any plan or project that is unable to demonstrate that it will not have an adverse effect upon any European site cannot be given effect, unless strict and exceptional tests are met. It is not possible from the data so far available to conclude that water abstraction from the boreholes at Milford and Shugborough are not having a significant adverse effect on the integrity of the SAC and that any effect will not be greater with increased abstraction at one or both boreholes.

    Cannock Chase District Council Election Results 1973-2012 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
