Decision details

S/1547/09/F - Hardwick (73 St Neots Road)

Decision Maker: Development and Conservation Control Committee (see also Planning Committee), Planning Committee

Decision status: Recommendations approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

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

Decision:

The Committee approved the application contrary to the recommendation in the report from the Corporate Manager (Planning and Sustainable Communities).  Reason: While the development, by virtue of floorspace and height, constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt, the  considerations outlined by the applicant were considered to be very special circumstances that clearly outweigh the harm that would otherwise be caused to the rural character and openness of the Green Belt.  There was therefore no conflict with Policies HG/6, GB/1 and GB/2 in the South Cambridgeshire Local Development Framework 2007.
