Representation Summary:

This piece of land has been the subject of previous planning applications from its owners, and these have all been refused. We do not see the need to re-state all the reasons for the previous applications being refused, but believe that they hold firm today and are equally as valid as when the previous applications were refused. This land is greenbelt and should remain as such.

We notice that the plan includes a piece of land in Warley adjacent to Carmel, Mascalls Lane ( site ref. 027 ). This piece of land has been the subject of previous planning applications from its owners, and these have all been refused. For the most recent application, an appeal was also refused. We do not see the need to re-state all the reasons for the previous applications being refused, but believe that they hold firm today and are equally as valid as when the previous applications were refused, when residents and the council planning department both objecting. We believe that the owners of this land have shown that they are solely out to make financial profit from this land while showing no regard for the surrounding community. They have seized on the situation and current planning activity to try once again to develop this green belt land. We wish to register our strongest objections to this piece of land being included for development in the Local Plan. We urge that the owners are given a strong NO response, and that this land is removed from the Local Plan immediately
