Minutes of a Virtual Extraordinary Meeting of the Parish Council

Present: Councillors R Fisken (Chairman), A Dick, A Keeley, R Butler and G Light
In attendance: P Thompson (Clerk)
1. Apologies: Councillor C Butler
2. Declaration of Interests: None
3. Planning Applications:
20/00763/FULD - Redwood, Burnt Hill. Demolition of existing house, garage and outbuildings. Erection of one new dwelling.
The Chairman explained his views on this application having referred to the WBC decision and planning officer's report on the previous application for a smaller replacement property as well as comments received from local residents.
It was unanimously agreed that the Council would object to the proposal on the grounds that it was in clear violation of WBC's planning policy C7 as well as not fitting well into the AONB.
There were concerns regarding the lack of a garage or other outbuildings within the plans which may lead to further over-development on the site in the future. It was agreed that we should request that, if a planning application for the site is eventually approved, it should be on the basis that all permitted development rights related to the property should be removed.
The Clerk was asked to submit the Council's observations to WBC.
4. There being no other business the meeting closed at 10.12am
