  • 20/00873/FULM Proposal: Residential Development of 103 Dwellings And
    COMMITTEE REPORT – 3rd NOVEMBER 2020 Application No: 20/00873/FULM Proposal: Residential development of 103 dwellings and associated access and infrastructure Location: Field Reference Number 7108, Eakring Road, Bilsthorpe Applicant: Keepmoat Homes - Miss Elizabeth Woodhouse Agent: Geoff Perry Associates Ltd - Mrs Sinead Rose Registered: 10.06.2020 Target Date: 09.09.2020 Extension of Time Agreed Until 04.11.2020 Website Link: https://publicaccess.newark-sherwooddc.gov.uk/online- applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=QB1R8DLBHIG00 The application is being referred to committee as the Officer recommendation is contrary to the objection from the Parish Council. The Site The application site relates to a broadly rectangular plot of land approximately 3.8 hectares in extent to the east of Eakring Road. The site falls within the defined village envelope for Bilsthorpe at the very north eastern extent. The site lies adjacent to the former Bilsthorpe Colliery, which closed in 1997. An old railway line (which has been dismantled) lies to the north of the site, and now appears to be informally used as a footpath/track. There are existing residential curtilages on the opposite side of Eakring Road. Land to the north east is identified as being a site of interest in nature conservation owing to being recognised as an important site for breeding waders. Land to the south is currently in commercial use whilst land immediately to the north and the east is open in nature with woodland screening along the east elevation. Relevant Planning History 17/01139/OUTM - Residential development up to 85 dwellings (Class C3), up to 3,000 sqft (280 sqm) retail development (Class A1), and associated access works including details of a new access junction into the site from Eakring Road.

  • IP17 Eakring Inquiry Submission
    EAKRING PARISH COUNCIL SUBMISSION INQUIRY: APP/L3055/V/14/3001886 BILSTHORPE BUSINESS PARK My name is Marisha Curry, I am currently Chairman of Eakring Parish Council, of which I have been an elected councillor for 19 years. I have lived in Eakring since 1982. Eakring is a conservation village of some 170 households and 419 parishioners, who are proud of our rural setting, local wildlife, heritage agriculture and tourism. Listed buildings in the village include St Andrew's Church, Eakring Windmill, Walnut Tree Cottage, Hall Farm House and Pond Farm House. Parishioners have raised several concerns regarding the proposed Incinerator, with all bar 2 households signing a petition opposing the application. As Eakring has been working with RAGE many of these concerns may have been raised in more detail in the submission from RAGE, so I apologise for any repetition that may occur. 1 Eakring residents concerns are: air quality and human health. odour and noise, landscape and visual impact, transport, wildlife, tourism and local employment. Air quality and Human Health Eakring is approximately 2 Kms north east of the site, and as the prevailing winds are from the south west and west, would be directly downwind of the incinerator. This has raised concerns relating to odour, noise and emissions, particularly as when the developers were asked, at a consultation evening, what would be the composition of the waste parishioners were told, by the developers, they didn't know. Which obviously raised the question, 'if you don't know what is going in how do you know what is coming out?' As shown in Argus Ecology's Clarification of Air Quality Impacts in the EIA, Eakring will be in direct line of emissions.

  • Onshore Oil and Gas Development in Nottinghamshire February 2016 (Updated August 2016)
    Onshore oil and gas development in Nottinghamshire February 2016 (updated August 2016) 1 Introduction Oil and gas is important to our economy and as supplies of offshore reserves in the North Sea begin to decline, supplies of onshore reserves are becoming increasingly important. Around one third of our energy requirements are provided by gas for industrial purposes, 1 energy generation and for domestic heating and cooking. Since 2004, the UK has been a net importer of gas. In 2014 45% of UK gas supply was made up of net imports. By 2030 the UK could be importing 75% of the gas we consume 2 assuming new onshore reserves are not developed. Domestic oil production has also declined since reaching a peak in 1999. Currently net imports comprise around 40% of the oil we use. The Department of Energy and Climate Change, (now part of the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy), 3 estimate that net imports could increase to 75% of the gas we consume by 2030. The Government believes that developing onshore gas reserves could help fill the gap alongside renewable and nuclear electricity, helping the UK reduce carbon emissions. It could also provide greater security of energy supply and improve energy resilience. The National Planning Policy Framework expects Minerals Planning Authorities should when planning for on-shore oil and gas development, including unconventional hydrocarbons, clearly distinguish between the three phases of development – exploration, appraisal and production- and address constraints on production and processing within areas that are licensed for oil and gas exploration or production. Since the 1940’s Nottinghamshire has extracted oil from across the county and more recently has also extracted gas from disused mine shafts.

  • Eakring Windfarm Planning Application
    meeting Cabinet date 11th October 2006 agenda item number Report of the Leader Strategic planning observations on planning application for five wind turbines at land to the west of Blidworth Lane, Rainworth, Nottinghamshire Purpose of the Report 1. To seek approval for comments set out in this report to be sent to Newark and Sherwood District Council in response to the request for strategic planning observations on the above planning application. Introduction 2. On 3rd July 2006 a planning application was submitted to Newark and Sherwood District Council for a windfarm at land to the west of Blidworth Lane, Rainworth, Nottinghamshire. 3. Nottinghamshire County Council has been consulted for strategic planning observations on the application and this report compiles responses from Departments involved in providing comments and observations on such matters. On the basis of Cabinet’s decision, comments will be sent to Newark and Sherwood District Council in response to this consultation. 4. The planning application is accompanied by an Environmental Statement (ES) and a Planning Statement. This report is based on the information submitted with the application in the context of national, regional and local policy. 5. Through the consideration of the ES a number of omissions and incorrect assumptions have been identified. Most of these matters could be addressed through the submission of further information or reassessment of the situation based on a different assumption. The issues are raised in the relevant sections of the report below. 6. Although there are instances where not all of the information is available at the present time, it is nevertheless important that Nottinghamshire County Council take this opportunity to provide strategic planning observations to Newark and Sherwood District Council, albeit that they may be made subject to caveats regarding the outstanding information.
