Minutes: The Board considered a report of the Chief Executive, a copy of which, marked ‘Agenda Item 7’, is filed with these minutes. In accordance with the procedures for making representations to the Board Mr. John Gough spoke on behalf of the applicant. RESOLVED: That the application be refused. Reasons for refusal 1. The continued use of the site as a bagging
plant operation would result in material being imported from unknown locations,
with no association with the Husbands Bosworth Quarry site. This would result
in an unsustainable form of development in a rural location. The continued use
would not benefit from co-location benefits, leading to a form of industrial
development in a countryside location.
As such, the continued use would be contrary to policies DM1 and M13 of the
Leicestershire Minerals and Waste Local Plan (2019). 2. The continued use would result in a
discordant and industrial addition to the landscape which would adversely
affect the character and quality of the area in which it is located. Approval
of the application would therefore be contrary to policy DM5 of the
Leicestershire Minerals and Waste Local Plan (2019) and policy GD3 of the
Harborough Local Plan (2019). 3. The applicant has failed to demonstrate that the continued use would not create a level of vehicle movements that would be a danger to road users, harming highway safety, contrary to policy DM9 of the Leicestershire Minerals and Waste Local Plan (2019), policy IN5 of the Leicestershire Highway Design Guide and paragraph 110 of the National Planning Policy Framework 2021. |
