Agenda item

This item was brought forward on the agenda, as the speakers had not arrived for the next item.

The Committee considered the monthly report on planning appeals lodged, withdrawn and decided.

A discussion took place regarding one of the appeals that had been allowed at Booth Farm, Hollinsclough, where it was felt that the Planning Inspector had not referred to the Development Management Policy which sets out the exceptions for pods and shepherds huts etc, but had made a view that they were acceptable in that location, which is contrary to our exceptions.  It was agreed that greater clarity in this area was needed when the Local Plan is rewritten.

RESOLVED

To note the report.
