| Conditions / Reason for Refusal: |
01
The Council considers that the proposed temporary agricultural worker’s mobile home would represent inappropriate development in the Green Belt, would have an adverse impact on the openness of the Green Belt, and would be contrary to the purposes of including land within it. The applicant has failed to demonstrate any very special circumstances to justify this inappropriate development, the harm caused to the openness of the Green Belt, and any other harm. As such, the proposal is considered to be contrary to Local Plan Policies CS4 ‘Green Belt’ and SP3 ‘Rural Workers Dwellings in the Green Belt’, and the guidance contained within the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).
POSITIVE AND PROACTIVE STATEMENT
Whilst the applicant entered into pre application discussions with the Local Planning Authority these identified that it is not possible to support a scheme of this nature and no amendments have been identified at this time to make it acceptable. The application was submitted on the basis of these discussions and it was not considered to be in accordance with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework resulting in this refusal.
