# Prior Decision Notice 04/00972/FUL

## TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1990 (as amended) TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING (GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PROCEDURE) ORDER 1995

### Reference Number 04/00972/FUL

Other bulky goods falling outside the permitted range specified above may only be sold with the prior written consent of the Local Planning Authority. Goods which are not bulky may only be sold where they form an ancillary part of the operation of the retail unit(s).

### Definitions:

1. no less than $80 \%$ of the net retail floorspace in the units to be used for the sale of the main range of bulky goods (as referred to above);
2. that the remainder of the net floorspace be ancillary to the main range of goods sold (the "ancillary part of the operation" as referred to above); and
3. the definition of a bulky good is a product that by reason of its size and/or weight requires a large display area and cannot be readily transported by means of public transport.

Reason - To protect the vitality and viability of Farnborough town centre.

### Informative

1 INFORMATIVE - REASONS FOR APPROVAL- The Council has granted permission because:

This proposal is considered to be acceptable because the continued presence of the restrictions in question cannot be justified and their removal, subject to imposition of a new condition relating to bulky goods, would not detract from the vitality or viability of the town centre in accordance with Policy TC1 of the Rushmoor Local Plan Review (1996 - 2011).

It is therefore considered that subject to compliance with the attached conditions, and taking into account all other material planning considerations, including the provisions of the development plan, the proposal would be acceptable. This also includes a consideration of whether the decision to grant permission is compatible with the Human Rights Act 1998.

### This Is Not An Approval Under The Building Regulations
