Recommendation Refusal<br />
Consultations/Representations:<br />
Parish / Town<br />
For the following reasons:<br />
1. The proposal would result in a commercial development not served<br />
adequately by public transport, remote from potential client and staff<br />
bases and would thus place a higher reliance on the use of the private<br />
motor vehicle and would be likely to result in increased journey lengths<br />
contrary to the sustainability aims of central and local government and to<br />
Policy T1 of the <strong>Stroud</strong> <strong>District</strong> Local Plan Revised Deposit Version (as<br />
amended June 2001).<br />
2. Notwithstanding the submitted drawings the proposal would be likely to<br />
result in an intensification in vehicular use of the sub-standard access<br />
serving the site to the detriment of highway safety. The proposal is<br />
therefore not in accordance with Policy G5 of the <strong>Stroud</strong> <strong>District</strong> Local<br />
Plan Revised Deposit Version (as amended June 2001).<br />
3. The loss of the length of hedgerow necessary to improve the visibility<br />
sight lines would be detrimental to the rural character of the area which is<br />
within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The proposal is<br />
therefore not in accordance with Policy N6 of the <strong>Stroud</strong> <strong>District</strong> Local<br />
Plan Revised Deposit Version (as amended June 2001).<br />
Object: accept access improvements are proposed but would still prefer to see no increase in<br />
traffic to this site. Traffic could be disruptive to village and increase road hazards in area.<br />
Commercial use is inappropriate given site location above and close to village. Site has been<br />
subject to incremental development over years from single pasture field and barn to current site<br />
with large buildings, riding area and access road. Parish <strong>Council</strong> wish to see continued<br />
development stopped and note there is considerable disquiet in village by the proposal.<br />
