RESOLVED NOT TO CONTEST APPEAL

Description of application – Single storey outbuilding to house swimming pool.

The Chief Planner’s representative reported that following publication of the agenda the Planning Inspectorate had written to the Council to confirm that an appeal against the non-determination of the application within the statutory eight week timeframe had been lodged and made valid.  It was therefore necessary for the Sub-Committee to consider whether it wished to contest the appeal or not.  The officer recommendation set out in the published agenda was to grant planning permission and therefore the Chief Planner’s representative recommended that Members resolve not to contest the appeal for the reasons set out in the report.  The recommendation was therefore amended to, ‘Resolve not to Contest Appeal’. 

Members having considered the report and objections, RESOLVED NOT TO CONTEST THE APPEAL as recommended, for the reasons set out in the report of the Chief Planner.
