Additional documents:
Minutes: Resolved: That the application be refused for the following reasons:
(i) The site lies beyond the village envelope of Loggerheads and its development would not comply with policies in the development plan on housing within the rural areas (ii) The development would have an urbanising effect on the open countryside and would have a significant adverse impact on the character and appearance of the area. (iii) The development would involve a high level of the use of the private car, thus be in conflict with policies on sustainable transport (iv) In the absence of a secured planning obligation and having regard to the likely additional pupils arising from a development of this scale and the capacity of existing educational provision in the area, the development fails to make an appropriate contribution towards education provision. (v) In the absence of a secured planning obligation the development fails to make an appropriate contribution towards the provision of affordable housing which is required to provide a balanced and well-functioning housing market. (vi) In the absence of a secured planning obligation the development fails to make appropriate contributions towards travel plan monitoring and preparation which is required to provide a sustainable development. (vii) In the absence of a secured planning obligation the development fails to provide a means to secure the long term maintenance and management of the required public open space upon the site
