Decision:

 

That planning permission be refused.

 

As this decision was contrary to officer recommendation, a named vote was taken as follows:

 

 

Reason:

 

(1)  The proposed development would by reason of its appearance, nature, scale  and illumination have a detrimental impact on the setting of a Grade II*  listed building (Stockbridge House) and a Grade II listed building (Stockbridge Lodge), contrary to Policy HE2 of Burnley’s Local Plan (July 2018) and the National Planning Policy Framework.

 

 

(2)  The proposed development would by reason of its proximity to neighbouring properties and the noise, activity and illumination associated with the proposal, have a negative and unacceptable impact on the amenities and living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers on Spenser Street, Victoria Road and Burnley Road, contrary to Policy SP5 of Burnley’s Local Plan (July 2018).
