The Parish Council has no objection to the extension of the use of the mobile home, as requested , as they recognise that the applicant seems to be building up a viable business on the site and needs someone living there full time. But this is on condition that during that period they make every effort to find a more permanent dwelling.

6/12/16
extended to 15/12/16 / 163537 / Lower Ailey, proposed construction of Agricultural Silage Barn / Support, but with the following comment
There is concern that, because this is for storage for fuel-stuffs for the aerobic digester, it is likely that it will increase either the number or size of lorries using the approach track.This track is not metalled and is already full of puddles. It is the access to 3 houses beyond the site in question. It is in fact an adopted track at this point, so the Council's responsibility to keep it passable. Any disputes would be between the applicant and the Council, but we would like draw attention to this, for the sake of the other residents.

The PC has no objection to this planning application, but would like to make the following comment.
Members of the PC had a meeting with the applicant on site.
It was agreed that the applicant would address the screening issue by allowing the existing hedges to the North and East (roadside) to grow up to a height of approx 10ft. He will keep them maintained to encourage thickening to improve the screen.
The conifers opposite Hurstley Farm have been topped and trimmed. Ongoing maintenance of these has been agreed. / Granted 23/9/16

(comment = no objections) / Granted 1/9/16
24/8/16 / 162132 / Norton Canon old nursery school change of use from Granny Annexe to self-contained unit, plus extension / General Comment submitted -
The Highway Authority has expressed concerns that visibility at the junction of the access with the A480 is restricted in a southerly direction and that the visibility does not meet the normal requirements for a 50 mph speed limit road. Nor does it meet the standards for the lesser speed measured by the appellant. Also, the proposal would result in an intensified use of a sub-standard access which would result in an unacceptable risk to highway safety.”
The current application proposes to use the same 'sub-standard access'
For this reason Kinnersley Group PC, whilst not against the change of use of the School Cottage, objects to the application as it stands.
The PC notes that an alternative access is available to the south of the School House, (cf. planning application P161246/F) and believes that this would be provide acceptable access for the present application to be approved. / Granted 5/9/16
24/8/16 / 162150 / Norton Canon old nursery school change of use from nursery school to residential / Object
On a previous application for the adjacent property, School Cottage (132130 dated 19 March 2013), there was a comment from The Highway Authority:-
“The Highway Authority has expressed concerns that visibility at the junction of the access with the A480 is restricted in a southerly direction and that the visibility does not meet the normal requirements for a 50 mph speed limit road. Nor does it meet the standards for the lesser speed measured by the appellant. Also, the proposal would result in an intensified use of a sub-standard access which would result in an unacceptable risk to highway safety.”

1/6/16 / 161246 / Land at Day Nursery, Norton House School. New residential development of 5 detached two storey houses / Support, with the following comments.
1) The parish council would suggest re-siting the sewage bio-unit to the other end of the plot (ie. the south-east corner), furthest from the next-door residents (2 Burford Cottages) because they experience surface-water flooding from the field in very wet weather and are concerned that the flooding might include run-off from the bio-unit.
2) The parish council would like to draw to the attention of planners that there have been several accidents on this stretch of road over the years. / Granted 23/6/16
