Decision details

All planning applications for Waterbeach considered by the Planning Committee since May 2003. For individual reports, please click on the ‘Meetings’ tab above. For further details on all Waterbeach planning applications, please visit our Planning Applications Database and select Waterbeach from the drop-down list of parishes

The Committee refused the Application contrary to the recommendation in the report from the Planning and New Communities Director. Members agreed the reasons for refusal as being that:

1.    the proposed number of dwellings per hectare was too low, contrary to Policy;

2.    the visual impact upon the open nature of land south of Bannold Road was unacceptable; and

3.    the development will result in the loss of land that could form a separation between the village of Waterbeach and the proposed new Settlement to the north.
