Environment Policy 1
Protects countryside and ecology for its own sake; development not permitted unless overriding national need and no alternative. Objector argued the compound adversely affects countryside visually and via road damage; officers did not assess as application withdrawn before determination.
General Policy 3
Prohibits development outside zoned areas except specific exceptions like agriculture or minerals. Objector claimed no exceptions apply to temporary compound; not assessed by officers due to information shortfall.
Minerals Policy 1 (Draft Strategic Plan)
Permits mineral working only if no unacceptable effects on amenity, landscape, habitats, or highway safety. Objector highlighted visual impact, dust, noise, and access issues; officers requested related details but no assessment completed.
Do not oppose has no traffic management, parking or road safety implications
Lonan Parish Commissioners recommend refusal of the retrospective application for a temporary construction compound due to opposition to retrospective applications; Highways do not oppose as there are no traffic implications; local resident D.P. Owens strongly objects on multiple policy grounds including countryside protection and highway damage.
Key concern: retrospective planning applications should not be permitted particularly in circumstances when the need for the matter is capable of being foreseen
Lonan Parish Commissioners
