Planning Applications that affect Briercliffe with Extwistle
Planning Related - 130 New Dwellings
Our Planning Committee chaired by Cllr. Roger Frost met last Thursday (4th July) and has drawn up a draft Parish Council letter of objections towards the application.
This will be discussed further by all Parish Councillors before being hand delivered to the planning offices by the
deadline date of 17th July.
Areas considered by the Committee as reasons for objection are, (in no particular order):
1) Over-development of the area
2) Traffic related issues
3) Access to the site is insufficient for the size of such a proposed development
4) No planned upgrades to infrastructure – school places/ green spaces
5) Detrimental effect on public rights of way
6) Wildlife related and agricultural related objections
7) Existing allotments near the site should be retained
8) Skyline issues due to the development.
