To consider application UTT/19/1054/OP.

The Planning Officer gave a summary of the report which recommended approval with conditions for permission of the outline application with all matters reserved except access for the erection of 2 detached dwellings and related infrastructure.

Members expressed concern that the application would have a negative impact on the countryside contrary to policy S7, and that the design of the application was contrary to policy GEN2.

Councillor Fairhurst proposed refusal of the application. Councillor Storah seconded this motion.

                        RESOLVED to refuse the application for the following reason:

The proposed development in the form of two dwellings will result in the introduction of significant built form to the site and as such will result in a significant harm to the open characteristics of the rural countryside setting and the chracter of the site. The proposal is therefore contrary to ULP Policies S7, GEN2 and the aims of the NPPF.

B Lindsell and C Loone spoke on this item.
