HA Next agenda

177/18 To approve comments for the following Planning Applications (please click on the link to view):

a.     18/00262/REM | Application for approval of reserved matters for layout, scale, appearance and landscaping for the erection of 100 Dwellings | and North Of Pepper Street Keele Newcastle Under Lyme Staffordshire

It was noted that this application had already progressed through the Planning Committee and had been granted subject to conditions.

b.     18/00469/FUL | Proposed Poppy Garden including a memorial installation formed from galvanised steel plate with a colour coated finish | Grassed Area On Church Street Adjacent To St Lukes Church And 173–179 Church Street Silverdale Newcastle Under Lyme Staffordshire

SPC welcomed this application.

c. 18/00562/FUL-Erection of 2no. Commercial units in a single portal framed industrial building with associated hard standings, parking and fencing. Land off Maries Way, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire.

An application under S51 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 for change of use of land in Maries Way into a household waste recycling centre was refused in September 2007 by Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council.

The current proposal is very broad in scope covering a multitude of industrial uses, and potentially it opens up the prospect of some industrial use associated with the recycling of waste.

The Council is aware that there is a long-term licence for disposal of such waste at the Walleys Quarry Land Fill site on Cemetery Road and the Council would wish to contain such operations to this site.

It was RESOLVED, therefore to oppose the planning application as it directly or indirectly may increase the likelihood of waste products being brought into this land.

c.     17/00345/FUL-Application for approval of a noise assessment as required by condition 5 of planning permission 17/00345/FUL-Proposed 2 bedroom bungalow (amendments to 16/00316/FUL) Garage rear of 55, High Street, Silverdale. Ref. no. 17/00345/2CN05

The above application was noted.

d.     The relocation of the Speed humps by 41/43 Mill Street (Ref. 14/00855/FUL)  The previously submitted comments were noted.
