PARISH NOTIFICATION Silverdale Parish Council - No objections. LAND USE ALLOCATION/DEPARTURE Arnside/Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. STATUTORY CONSULTATIONS County Council Highways – No objection. Arnside/Silverdale AONB Executive - The purpose of designating an AONB is to conserve and enhance the natural beauty of the area. The buildings proposed here are temporary, to fulfil a short term need. If the school requires extra classrooms a permanent solution should be sought. In this instance the house and garden are of significant merit and they suggest that a design brief, to ensure that any new buildings blend in with the existing house, would be useful. OTHER OBSERVATIONS RECEIVED Four letters from neighbours express concern that the proposal could lead to an increase in the size of the school and consequently more traffic movements to and from the site. It is pointed out that the access road is a narrow lane and unsuitable for heavy traffic. One of the writers expresses concern that damage may be caused to boundary walls by large vehicles. Any other representations received will be reported orally at Committee. Page 2 REPORT Ridgway Park is a special school catering for children with emotional and behavioural difficulties. It occupies premises on the south side of Silverdale, which were previously used as a Civil Service training centre. In August 2001 consent was granted for a group of temporary buildings within the former kitchen garden of the house on the site. The intention was that they would provide short term accommodation while proposals for permanent buildings suitable for school use were being prepared. Four detailed proposals for permanent buildings within the site were submitted in August 2002. Three of them were approved; the fourth one was refused, but it was indicated that a modified version of the proposal was likely to be considered more sympathetically. However the amended scheme was not submitted and the accommodation approved has never been built. Instead, as the consent for the present temporary buildings is about to expire, the applicants have put forward proposals for a different type of temporary accommodation. The total floorspace provided would be 380 sq metres, and would consist of:- - Four classrooms - Three learning support rooms - Staff room - Common room - Head Teacher's office - Hall/central circulation area Because of the nature of the school's client group the classrooms are considerably smaller than are usual in mainstream education. The building proposed (to be assembled as a single composite unit) is of a type produced by a specialist manufacturer (Elliotts) whose mobile classroom units are widely used by education authorities. They are more suited to the purposes of the school than the portable units currently on the site. The external panels would be finished in two shades of green. However, the building is still temporary rather than permanent accommodation. The application forms indicate that the school would like permission for five years. Following an approach to the school, the headteacher has sent a letter setting out the reasons for the present application. A copy of it appears at the end of this report. It appears from this that the reason they have not provided any permanent accommodation is uncertainty about the long term use of the site.
