DECISION

 

PLANNING PERMISSION BE REFUSED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:

 

 

1.             The proposals would result in significant alterations to the buildings, which, when considered cumulatively, are tantamount to the construction of a new building in the countryside.  The proposals would not therefore comprise of the re-use and adaption of existing buildings and would therefore be contrary to paragraph 79 of the NPPF and Policy 22 (Development within the Countryside) of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies.

 

2.             The cumulative impacts of the physical alterations to the buildings together with the domestic paraphernalia associated with its use as a dwelling would result in significant and harmful urbanising of simple agricultural buildings, which would be harmful to the character and appearance of this open countryside location.  The proposals would not therefore conserve or enhance their immediate setting and would therefore be contrary to paragraph 80 of the NPPF and Policy 22 (Development within the Countryside) of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies.

 

Notes to applicant

 

Positive and Proactive Statement

 

The proposal was a resubmission of a previously refused application and as there had been no changes to the proposal itself or to planning policies, which would overcome the reasons for refusal, to enable the Rushcliffe Borough Council reach an alternative decision to that on the previous application, it was not considered further negotiation or discussion would be beneficial.
