A Petitioner addressed the meeting
The Applicant addressed the meeting
A Ward Councillor addressed the meeting.
On a motion by Councillor Boult and seconded
by Councillor Kelly it was:
Resolved (12:1)
That the application be refused on the
following grounds:
1.The site
lies within the Green Belt, where the National Planning Policy
Framework and Policies GB2 and URN1 in the Wirral Unitary
Development Plan make it clear that there is a general presumption
against inappropriate development and substantial weight must be
given to the harm arising from inappropriate development. It is not
considered that very special circumstances have been demonstrated
that would outweigh such harm.
|
2. It is
considered that the proposal conflicts with the provisions of the
National Planning Policy Framework and Policies GB2, LAN1 and LA7
in the Wirral Unitary Development Plan because its siting, materials, design and layout would fail to
improve the character and quality of the area and would be
detrimental to the openness and visual amenities of the Green
Belt.
