Decision status: Recommendations approved
Is Key decision?: No
A report was presented on an application for the development of an energy recovery facility on land at Imperial Road, Heysham.
The Development Management Officer explained that as this was a major development, it was proposed to visit both the site at Imperial Road, Heysham and a similar existing facility at Cannock, near Wolverhampton. This would hopefully provide the Committee with a clearer understanding of the development proposal, any issues raised and the relationship of the site to the surrounding area before determining the application.
The Officer also advised that the applicant's proposal should refer to '…the combustion of up to 330,000 tonnes per annum…' not 300,000 tonnes per annum as set out in the report.
Resolved: That the Development Control Committee visit the site at Imperial Road, Heysham and the existing facility at Cannock, near Wolverhampton prior to determining the application.
