Lea Quarry, Wenlock Edge, Much Wenlock, TF13 6DG (124/02390/FUL)

Erection of one low profile wind turbine.  Following the submission of an appeal against non-determination, the Committee gave a resolution that, had a decision been required, they would have been minded to grant planning permission as per the Officer’s recommendation and subject to:

  • The conditions as set out in Appendix 1 of Annex 1 to the report;
  • The amended Condition 4, including 4a and 4b, as set out in the report; and

Condition 6 as set out in the report, subject to it being amended to ensure that the default position of the turbine shall be horizontal on the ground and that the turbine shall remain in this default position except for the purposes of training.

Shropshire Council offices, Westgate, Bridgnorth, WV16 5AA (14/02693/OUT)

Proposed residential development, including creation of new vehicular and pedestrian access roads (Outline Proposal).  That planning permission be granted as per the officer’s recommendation, subject to:

  • Completion of a Memorandum of Understanding to secure affordable housing and maintenance of any public open space by an appropriate body through a Section 106 Legal Agreement; and

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

Land north west of Stableford Hall, Stableford, Bridgnorth (14/04387/FUL)

Application under Section 73a of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 for the erection of an agricultural building and formation of an agricultural access track (part retrospective).  That planning permission be granted as per the officer’s recommendation, subject to:

  • The conditions as set out in Appendix 1 to the report; and

The external surfaces of the roof of the agricultural building shall be BS18B29.

Land east of 30 to 31 East Castle Street, Bridgnorth (14/04464/FUL)

Erection of one dwelling (revised scheme).  That, contrary to the officer’s recommendation, planning permission be refused for the following reasons:The proposed development by reason of the height, bulk and positioning of the building would result in a substantial loss of light to the existing properties on Castle Terrace and Bank Street that would be detrimental to the living conditions of those dwellings and the residential amenities of the area. The development would therefore be contrary to Shropshire Core Strategy policy CS6.
