Minutes:

Description of application – Change of use of land for siting of caravans for residential use for occupation by Gypsy Travellers with an amenity block, septic tank, hard standing, re-proofing of land and boundary fence. PART RETROSPECTIVE.

 

Councillor Lydia Buttinger reported there were significant concerns amongst residents with regard to this application as it was prime green belt site and designated a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation and that no very special circumstances existed to warrant an exception to Green Belt Policy.

 

Members having considered the report and objections, RESOLVED that PERMISSION BE REFUSED as recommended, for the reasons set out in the report of the Chief Planner.
