On a motion by Councillor Kelly and seconded by Councillor Lewis it was moved that the application be refused on the following grounds:
“It is the opinion of the Local Planning Authority that the proposed development would have an unacceptable impact upon the character and amenity of the area by virtue of the layout, density and scale of the proposed development. The proposal is therefore contradictory to Unitary Development Plan Policy HS4 – Criteria for New Housing Development.
It is the opinion of the Local Planning Authority that the proposed access from Meadowside Road would result in an unacceptable impact upon highway safety as a result of the introduction of a significant number of additional vehicular movements to the locality which would exceed the capacity of the existing local transport infrastructure and is thereby contrary to the planning brief for the Acre Lane site and to Unitary Development Plan Policy HS4 – Criteria for New Housing Development.
It is the opinion of the Local Planning Authority that the proposal would result in an unacceptable impact upon highway safety in Dawpool Drive, Greenfields Avenue and Allport Lane as a result of the introduction of a significant number of additional vehicular movements to the locality which would exceed the capacity of the existing local transport infrastructure and is thereby contrary to Unitary Development Plan Policy HS4 – Criteria for New Housing Development.”
