Minutes:
Erection of 130no. dwellings with associated access roads, open space and landscaping and vehicular access from Standen Hall Drive following the demolition of No. 64 Standen Hall Drive. Proposal affects Public Footpath Nos. 174 and 224, Briercliffe.
A motion to approve the application was moved and seconded.
On being put to the vote the motion was declared to be lost.
A motion to refuse the application was moved and seconded. As this was contrary to officer recommendation, a named vote was carried out.
Decision: That the application be refused. Highways reason: The proposal would result in an unacceptable impact upon highway safety as a result of introducing a significant number of additional vehicular movements to the locality which would exceed the capacity of the existing local transport infrastructure and fails to provide an adequate means of mitigating the impact. As such, the proposal is therefore contrary to policies SP1, IC1 and IC2 of the adopted Burnley Local Plan 2018 and the NPPF 2019.
