The following decisions were made by Shropshire Council’s Central planning committee at its meeting at Shirehall, Shrewsbury on Thursday 1 May 2014.

Land Opposite Ellesmere Drive, Ellesmere Road, Shrewsbury (13/05124/FUL)  Mixed residential development of 75 dwellings (including 8 affordable units), formation of vehicular access; provision of open space and associated landscape and infrastructure improvements.

Land Adjacent Field House, Shepherds Lane, Shrewsbury, SY3 8BT (14/01105/FUL)  Erection of 6 No dwellings and formation of access. 

Decision: That planning permission be granted in accordance with the officer’s recommendation, subject to:

  • A Section 106 Legal Agreement to secure the relevant affordable housing contribution;
  • To the conditions as set out in Appendix 1 to the report; and

The additional requirement of Construction Traffic Management Plan.

Bank House Poultry, Yockleton, Shropshire (14/00328/EIA)  Erection of two poultry sheds; associated hard standing; feed bins; dirty water storage tank and landscaping works. 

Decision: That, subject to the conditions as set out in Appendix 1 to the report, planning permission be granted in accordance with the officer’s recommendation.

Development Land West Of Bryn Road, The Mount, Shrewsbury, Shropshire (14/00743/OUT)  Outline application for residential development (to include access). 

Decision: That planning permission be refused, contrary to the officer’s recommendation, for the following reason:

The LPA consider that the proposed development would fail to protect and enhance the high quality and local character of Shropshire’s natural, built and historic environment, and would adversely affect the visual, ecological, heritage and recreational values and functions of these assets, , their immediate surroundings and their connecting corridors. Accordingly the proposal is considered contrary to Shropshire Core Strategy development plan policies CS6 and CS17 As such the adverse impacts of granting permission are considered to significantly and demonstrably outweigh any benefits when assessed against the policies in the National Planning Policy Framework taken as a whole.

Land to rear 110-112 London Road, Shrewsbury, SY2 6PP (13/02781/FUL)  Erection of two residential dwellings (amended description). 

Decision: That the Area Planning Manager be given delegated authority to grant planning permission, subject to:

  • A Section 106 Legal Agreement to secure an affordable housing contribution;
  • Additional conditions in relation to construction hours and restricting the displaced car parking space for occupiers; and

The conditions as set out in Appendix 1 to the report.
