DELEGATED DECISION LIST FOR PERIOD 7 JULY 2014 TO 01 AUGUST 2014 - FOR NOTING
SUBJECT: PLANNING APPLICATIONS AND RELATED MATTERS
REPORT BY: DEVELOPMENT CONTROL MANAGER
………………………………………………………………………………………......
Proposal: Erection of agricultural drying and storage building and demolition of existing outbuildings Location: Fenhouses Lane, Swineshead, Boston, Lincolnshire, PE20 3HF
Applicant: W P & H Laird, W P & H Laird & Son
Decision: GRANT Decision Date: 15-Jul-2014 Reason for refusal (if applicable): Parish: Swineshead Parish Council

Proposal: Change of use of disused shed to training facility for forklift trucks including external re-cladding and siting of static caravan for office use
Location: Land adjacent to, 10, Grovefield Lane, Fishtoft, Boston, Lincolnshire, PE22 0QJ
Applicant: Mr Ryan Mountain, Mountains of Boston LTD
Decision: REFUSE Decision Date: 24-Jul-2014 Reason for refusal (if applicable): Grovefield Lane is unsuitable in terms of its carriageway width, its carriageway construction, the absence of footways and the absence of satisfactory street lighting system to serve the commercial operation which is proposed to be undertaken at this site. The application site is at some distance beyond the established development envelopes of the nearest villages of Fishtoft and Freiston and is remote from any public transport facilities. Accordingly, all travel and transportation to and from the proposed facility would be likely to be made by motor vehicles which would have to use the narrow carriageway of Grovefield Lane. This additional vehicular activity would increase the incidence of vehicles meeting on the road and drivers having to undertake unreasonable reversing manoeuvres or over-run the carriageway edges and highway verges in order to pass one another. Such manoeuvres are contrary to the interests of highway safety and damaging to the fabric of this rural public highway, which is already exhibiting significant signs of structural failure. The additional vehicular activity on Grovefield Lane that would accrue from the proposed use of the site would Delegated Decision List 07/07/2014 – 01/08/2014
increase un-necessarily and unacceptably the risk of conflicts between vehicles and pedestrians, in particularly those living in the neighbouring residential properties, who have to share the carriageway. This risk would be increased in the hours of darkness due to the existing low standard of street lighting on Grovefield Lane. Approval of this application would therefore be contrary to the interests of highway safety and would accelerate un-necessarily the deterioration of the fabric of the public highway and would be contrary to the objectives of Local Plan policies G1, G6 and C06

Proposal: Outline application for the erection of 2 dwellings including access with appearance, landscaping, layout and scale reserved for later approval
Location: Church Road, Freiston, Boston, Lincolnshire
Applicant: Mr Robert Fleet
Decision: REFUSE Decision Date: 09-Jul-2014 Reason for refusal (if applicable): The application site is located outside the Freiston village envelope as defined in the Adopted Local Plan in an area where Local Plan policy C01 resists new development unless supported by other Local Plan policies. The site is however located within the Freiston village envelope as defined within the Boston Borough Interim Plan. Freiston is identified in the Interim Plan as 'other village 'where policy H4 allows infill housing where, amongst other things, the development would meet a proven local need or would provide environmental benefit. This application would be at conflict with the objectives of Interim Plan policy H4 Delegated Decision List 07/07/2014 – 01/08/2014
because no evidence has been submitted which demonstrates that this development would meet a proven local need or that it would provide an environmental benefit. This development would also be contrary to Local Plan policy C01 because it is not supported by other Local Plan policies and would be at conflict with sustainability objectives contained within the National Planning Policy Framework (2012).
Insufficient information has been submitted which clearly demonstrates that the development and its future users will be safe over the lifetime of the development. The submitted Flood Risk Assessment does not provide a suitable basis for assessment to be made of the flood risks resulting from this development. The application is therefore contrary to the objectives of the NPPF (2012) which seeks to ensure that inappropriate development in areas of risk of flooding should be avoided by directing development away from areas at highest risk, but where development is necessary, making it safe without increasing flood risk elsewhere.
