North planning committee decisions
The following planning applications were considered and decided by Shropshire Council’s north planning committee at its meeting on Tuesday 21 August 2012.
Land At Tudorholme, Station Road, Whitchurch – 11/05162/FUL
Erection of 6 no. dwellings and formation of vehicular access, parking and garden areas following demolition of existing dwelling
Decision: That, subject to:
- The applicant entering into a Section 106 Legal Agreement;
- Condition 3 being amended in accordance with the comments received from the Enforcement Officer;
- Conditions 7 and 8 being replaced with a new condition 7 regarding hard and soft landscaping works, in accordance with the comments received from the Enforcement Officer; and
- Two additional conditions, one requiring development to be strictly in accordance with the drainage scheme submitted and approved; and the other removing permitted development rights from the dwellings.
Planning permission be granted in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation.
Squirrel Inn, Wollerton – 12/01849/FUL
Change of use from a public house (Use Class A4) to a residential dwelling (Use Class C3)
Decision: That planning permission be refused against the Officer’s recommendation for the following reason:
The proposal is considered to be an inappropriate change of use as it would result in the loss of a local community facility, the application does not provide for any equivalent or improved provision within the village of Wollerton, nor has it been clearly demonstrated that the use as a public house is not viable over the long term, therefore the proposal is contrary to the requirements of Policy CS6 of Shropshire Council’s Core Strategy.
