APPLICATION FOR PLANNING PERMISSION 98031/OUT/19 - LAND TO THE EAST AND WEST OF WARBURTON LANE, WARBURTON WA13 9TT pdf icon PDF 928 KB

To consider the attached report of the Head of Planning and Development.

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Head of Planning and Development submitted a report concerning an application for planning permission for residential development of up to 400 dwellings, including the creation of new points of access, provision of formal and informal open space, ancillary landscaping, car parking and highway and drainage works.

 

(A)           RESOLVED:  That had Members been able to determine the planning application they would be minded to refuse planning permission for the following reasons:

 

(1)             The impacts of the proposed development on designated and non-designated heritage assets have not been adequately accounted for within the application submission. The proposed development – in principle and without adequate pre-determination evaluation – could result in the total loss of potential assets of equivalent significance to scheduled monuments and to other non-designated heritage assets of archaeological interest, which would equate to substantial harm in NPPF terms., The proposed development – by reason of its scale, layout and distribution – would lead to less than substantial harm to the significance of other built designated and non-designated heritage assets. This harm would not be outweighed by the public benefits of the development. The proposal fails to satisfy the tests at paragraphs 195 and 196 of the National Planning Policy Framework and is contrary to Policy R1, Policy R2 and Policy R3 of the Trafford Core Strategy.

 

(2)In reviewing this outline application it is apparent that a parameters plan and indicative drawings are not sufficient in seeking to establish the acceptability of the scheme as a whole, in particular the amount, nature and location of on-site mitigation required and potential necessary new infrastructure, and the effect this might have on the quantum of development the site can reasonably deliver. The proposal is contrary to Policy L3, Policy L4, Policy L7, Policy R2 and Policy R3 of the Core Strategy and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

(3)The proposed development is in an unsuitable location by virtue of being other protected, open or safeguarded land, in an area of poor accessibility to public transport, jobs and amenities, and with a heavily congested road network. The proposal does not support necessary new infrastructure and facilities, and has not been planned to enable sensitive integration with the existing settlement and a potential new settlement, and to support wider regeneration. As a result, the development would function as an isolated community and a sustainable pattern of growth would not be achieved. Sustainable development would not be delivered and the proposal is contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework, and to Policy L1, Policy L3, Policy L4 and Policy L7 and Policy R4 of the Core Strategy.

 

(4)No allowance has been made for affordable housing provision within the development and the submitted financial viability appraisal has not adequately demonstrated that the development could not otherwise be delivered. The development would not contribute to affordable housing needs and would not support the creation of mixed and balanced communities. The proposal is contrary to Policy L2 and Policy L8 of the Core Strategy, SPD1: Planning  ...  view the full minutes text for item 65.
