Decision

RESOLVED: That application 26/00853/FP be REFUSED planning permission for the following reasons, with delegated authority granted to the Development and Conservation Manager to finalise the reasons for refusal:

A)        The proposed floodlights and poles would have an unacceptable adverse intensification and visual impact appearing out of context and harmful to the locality as well as causing harm to nearby residential amenity, failing to comply with the provisions of Policies D1 and D3 of the Local Plan and Policy DP3.1 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

B)        The erection of the floodlight poles prior to the grant of planning permission is unacceptable intentional development and is given substantial weight in accordance with the advice contained in Policy DM8.2 of the NPPF.
