06/03/2019 - 07/2018/5820/OUT - Land at 448 Croston Road, Leyland ref: 405 Recommendations Approved
Decision Maker: Planning Committee
Made at meeting: 06/03/2019 - Planning Committee
Decision published: 13/03/2019
Effective from: 06/03/2019
Decision:
RESOLVED: (Unanimously)
That the application be refused for the following reasons:
1. The proposed development would result in piecemeal development which would not integrate well with the wider proposal for the comprehensive development of ‘Site W’. The proposal is therefore contrary to the requirements of Policy C3 of the South Ribble Local Plan.
2. The submission fails to demonstrate that a residential development can be accommodated on the site without appearing ‘shoe-horned in’, to the detriment of the character and appearance of the area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy 17 of the Core Strategy and Policy G17 of the South Ribble Local Plan.
3. The submission fails to demonstrate that a residential development on the site can be accessed without resulting in an unacceptable impact on highway safety. The proposal is therefore contrary to para. 109 of the NPPF and Policy G17 of the South Ribble Local Plan.
4. No evidence has been provided to demonstrate why discharge options, specifically into the ground (infiltration), to a surface water body or a surface water sewer, cannot be utilised. Therefore the proposed drainage strategy is contrary to Policy 29 of the Central Lancashire Core Strategy and the Planning Practice Guidance hierarchy.
5. The submission fails to demonstrate that the development would not present a surface water drainage risk that could lead to flooding on-site and/or off-site. Therefore the proposal is contrary to the requirements of Policy 29 of the Central Lancashire Core Strategy, the NPPF and the Planning Practice Guidance hierarchy.
