Reports of the Head of Planning Services on planning applications to be determined at this meeting

a)    Application Refused

RESOLVED that the undermentioned application be REFUSED under the provisions of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, as set out below:

Item 1 – Selbys Pig Farm, Little Tongues Lane, Preesall, Poulton-Le-Fylde, Lancashire, FY6 0PD

Application Number 17/00267/OUTMAJ

Messrs Gornall & Dewhurst.  Outline application for the erection of 10 dwellings with access from Little Tongues Lane/Bourbles Lane and layout applied for (all other matters reserved). Selbys Pig Farm, Little Tongues Lane, Preesall, Poulton-Le-Fylde, Lancashire, FY6 0PD.

The outline application was before Planning Committee for a second time. It was initially presented on the 6 June 2018. At that particular meeting, the Committee resolved to grant outline planning permission subject to conditions, with the planning permission to be issued after a tree issue at the site entrance was resolved, and the completion of a S106 legal agreement to secure appropriate contributions towards local education and affordable housing provision. That full report was enclosed with the update report, in the body of the Planning Agenda.

The decision had not been issued pending completion of the s106 agreement required to contribute towards local education and affordable housing provision.

When the application was presented to the 6 June 2018 Planning Committee the Council was unable to demonstrate a five year housing land supply and therefore paragraph 14 (presumption in favour of sustainable development) of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) was engaged. Since that time, the Emerging Local Plan has reached a more advanced stage and the revised NPPF has been published, resulting in a material change in circumstance in terms of the Council's housing land supply position. The Council can now demonstrate a 5+ years housing supply.  As the decision has not been issued and applications must be determined on the basis of material considerations at the time of the decision, Members were now required to reconsider the application and to take into account the changed circumstances.

The Applicant was present at the meeting, supported by his Agent. He spoke to the Committee supporting his application.

The Committee gave consideration to the Update sheet with  ...  view the full minutes text for item PA.31
