18/00732/FUL - Kyngs Golf And Country Club, Station Road, Market Bosworth pdf icon PDF 256 KB

Application for erection of multi-functional recreational building formation of a new car parking areas, new access roads and the proposed erection of 15 golf holiday homes and all associated ancillary works and landscaping (Resubmission).

 

‘Late items:’

 

Introduction:-

 

Further information has been submitted, which relates to a proposed revised layout of the affected Tee off hole and the 18th hole. The layout would result in the shortening of the holes.

 

Confidential information has also been provided which outlines the cost estimate appraisal of the development.

 

Consultations:-

 

An additional neighbour letter has been received raising the following comments:-

 

1)         The creation of holiday home will take away space for a golf course, decreasing its viability

2)         Green spaces should be protected

3)         There is no space in Market Bosworth for extra traffic

4)         More housing would require more development in roads, signalling, schools, doctors, Police and dentists, which are at capacity

 

Market Bosworth Parish Council have made additional comments and advise that the amended layout and information do not mitigate previous objections.

 

Appraisal:-

 

The proposed amendments to the 18 hole golf course would shorten both holes 1 and 18. No details have been submitted which identify the works associated to alter these holes and it is anticipated that this would result in works outside the red line boundary of the application and would require a further planning application for these works.

 

The proposed cost estimate appraisal identifies the build and sale values of the proposed development and its cost for delivery and how this cost would be met. This does not alleviate the concerns and issues raised in the original committee report.

 

The recommendations to committee have not changed from the original report.

 

 

Minutes:

Application for erection of multi-functional recreational building, formation of new car parking areas, new access roads and the proposed erection of 15 gold holiday homes and all associated ancillary works and landscaping (resubmission).

 

Notwithstanding the officer’s recommendation that permission be refused, it was moved by Councillor Roberts and seconded by Councillor Richards that the application be deferred to discuss whether issues could be overcome. Upon being put to the vote, the motion was LOST.

 

It was then moved by Councillor Cook, seconded by Councillor Bill and

 

RESOLVED – planning permission be refused for the reasons contained in the officer’s report.

Minutes:

Application for approval of reserved matters (appearance, landscaping, layout and scale) for residential development of 322 dwellings of outline planning permission 14/01279/OUT.

 

Whilst not part of the consideration of this application as acces was determined at the outline application stage, Councillor Richards wished it to be recorded that she had concerns about the highways impact of this development on the nearby roads and the amount of traffic using one entrance to Heath Lane.

 

It was moved by Councillor Hall, seconded by Councillor Roberts and

 

RESOLVED – permission be granted subject to the conditions contained in the officer’s report.

18/00805/FUL - Land North of Cadeby Lane, Cadeby pdf icon PDF 102 KB

Application for development of the land for the erection of three log cabins for holiday let purposes.

 

‘Late items:’

 

Introduction:-

 

It has been brought to the attention of the LPA that part of the proposed access is outside of the red line on the site plan. The applicant has submitted a revised site plan showing the majority of the access included within the red line and has confirmed that the land is within her ownership.

 

Consultations:-

 

LCC Highways are aware of this and have advised that the applicant conduct a Highway Boundary Search via their Highway Records department. The applicant has taken this advice but the results of this search have not yet been sent through.

 

Appraisal:-

 

The alterations to the red line do not change the Officer recommendation to Approve. Any works to the Highway on Highways land would need a separate agreement in place from the Highways Authority.

 

Recommendation:-

 

Condition 2 to be revised to read

 

The development hereby permitted shall not be carried out except in complete accordance with the details shown on the submitted plans:

 

Dwg No KL-386-002 – Location Plan received 13 August 2018

Dwg No KL-386-001 Rev B (18.10.10) - Proposed Site Plan received 19 October 2018

 

 

Minutes:

Application for development of the land for the erection of three log cabins for holiday let purposes.

 

Notwithstanding the officer recommendation that permission be granted, some members felt that the development and its design was not complementary to or reflective of the neighbouring properties and would have a significant adverse effect upon the character of the countryside of the area. It was moved by Councillor Cook and seconded by Councillor Hollick that they be minded to refuse permission. Upon being put to the vote, the motion was CARRIED and it was

 

RESOLVED – members be minded to refuse the application and it be brought back to the next appropriate meeting.
