Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/24/02274/OUT
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The proposed development would represent an intrusion into the countryside, whereby there would likely be a reliance on the private vehicle to access everyday services and facilities, and it has not been demonstrated that the site is capable of providing a development which would not result in harm to the character and appearance of the rural area and the loss of trees which are of amenity value.The proposed development would be contrary to Policies SP7, EE4, EE5, EE8 and HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan (2021) and Policies HO-5 and EV-5 and of the Potton Neighbourhood Plan (2019).
2) Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposal would provide biodiversity net gains, contrary to Policies EE2, and EE8 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan (2021) and Policy EV-5 of the Potton Neighbourhood Plan (2019).
3) The proposed development would result in the intensification of use of a substandard access(es), which makes no provision for adequate driver/driver intervisibility at the junction of Deepdale with Sandy Road and the junction of Mill Lane with Everton Road, and the intensification of a single width road which makes no provision for the passing of traffic (motorised, equestrian and pedestrian), leading to ruts in the road and the possible grounding of vehicles and and inconvenience and conflict to users of the road and maintenance costs to the council.
