Issue - meetings

The Head of Planning and Environment Services reported the receipt of five further letters of objection from local residents.  He also informed the Committee that there were a number of inaccuracies in the drawings submitted with the application and stated that he was minded to recommend refusal of the application.

In addition, it was reported that the expiry date for the publicity period of the application should read "16.08.2007", as opposed to that referred to in the report.

RESOLVED that the Head of Planning and Environment Services be authorised to refuse the application upon the expiry of the publicity period on 16th August 2007 for the following reason:

(1)       Insufficient information has been provided to show the relationship of the proposed incinerator to other features on the existing south elevation of the sawmill.  Furthermore, correct information has not been provided with regard to the existing roofline.  As such, the proposal is contrary to policy S19 of the Bromsgrove District Local Plan.
