Minutes:

The Head of Planning Services submitted an application and report to be considered.

 

19/00007/FULMAJ – Former Garstang Business and Community Centre, High Street, Garstang, Preston, Lancashire PR3 1FU. Variation of condition 2 (approved Plans) on application 16/00550/FULMAJ to allow for full demolition of existing building and the erection of a three-storey building to provide approx. 1400sqm (gross) of retail floor space (Class A1) and 18 residential apartments with new and re-configured car parking.

 

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 – Former Garstang Business and Community Centre, High Street, Garstang, Preston, Lancashire PR31FU

 

Application Number 19/00007/FULMAJ

 

Former Garstang Business and Community Centre, High Street, Garstang, Preston, Lancashire PR3 1FU. Variation of condition 2 (approved Plans) on application 16/00550/FULMAJ to allow for full demolition of existing building and the erection of a three-storey building to provide approx. 1400sqm (gross) of retail floor space (Class A1) and 18 residential apartments with new and re-configured car parking.

 

The application was before the committee at the request of Councillor Lady Atkins. The previous application 16/00550/FULMAJ was also considered by the Planning Committee on 22 March 2017 as it was a major development of strategic importance. As such, it was considered appropriate for this Section 73 planning application to be considered and determined by the committee.

 

The committee made a site visit prior to the meeting to enable Members to understand the proposal and its setting beyond the plans submitted and the photos taken by the Case Officer.

 

Two members of the public, Mr Brooks and Mr Allan, made representations objecting to the application.

 

The committee gave full consideration to the report and to the verbal submissions made at the meeting.

 

Resolved that the application be refused, contrary to the recommendation in the report, for the following reason:

 

The proposed development to allow the full demolition of the existing building, including the existing front and side facades, would result in unacceptable harm to the heritage value of Garstang Conservation Area contrary to policy CDMP5 of the Wyre Borough Local Plan.
