Minutes: Proposed by Councillor Fear and seconded by Councillor Reddish
Resolved: That the application be refused for the following reasons::
(i) The proposed development, by virtue of its scale, massing and design, would have an adverse impact on the character and appearance of the Newcastle Town Centre Conservation Area and the setting of Listed Buildings within the Conservation Area, namely the Guildhall and St. Giles’ Church. The proposal would thereby be contrary to Policies CSP1 and CSP2 of the Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke-on-Trent Core Spatial Strategy 2006-2026, saved Policies B5, B9, B10 and B14 of the Newcastle-under-Lyme Local Plan 2011, Policies HE3 and HE4 of the Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke-on-Trent Urban Design Guidance Supplementary Planning Document (2010), the Newcastle-under-Lyme Town Centre Supplementary Planning Document (2009), Policy Newcastle TC CA No. 2 of the Newcastle Town Centre Conservation Area Management Proposals, and the aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework (2012).
(ii) Given the absence of parking proposed within the site, the significant additional on-street parking demand that is likely to be created by the development would lead to an exacerbation of congestion and related harm to highway safety on streets in the vicinity of the development contrary to the aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework (2012) and the Ministerial Statement of March 2015.
