Decision details

A report was presented on an application to create a new class base and wheelchair store facing the existing courtyard at Bleasdale House School, Emesgate Lane, Silverdale.

The Committee was reminded that at their meeting on 8 May 2019, they had resolved to defer consideration of a separate planning application for a wheel chair store. However, since that meeting, the school had submitted a different proposal for the classroom and wheel chair store.

The report included the views of Lancaster City Council and Lancashire County Council's Highways Development Control. It was noted that no letters of representation had been received in respect of the application.

The Development Management Officer presented a PowerPoint Presentation showing an aerial view of the site and the nearest residential properties. The committee was also shown a location plan, an illustration of the development and photographs of the site from various aspects.

Following discussion with regard to the visual impact of the proposal, it was Moved and Seconded:

"That the application be deferred pending a site visit"

On being put to the vote the Motion was Lost.

The Substantive Motion was then put to the vote and it was:

Resolved:- That planning permission be Granted subject to the conditions set out in the report to the Committee.
