Parish Comments: – Our previous comments still apply which were: – Subject to waiving of previous approval: PL/18 4398 FA also subject to confirmation that the conversions have not been undertaken.

Also, the proposal constitutes inappropriate development within the Green Belt, which by definition is harmful. No very special circumstances have been advanced sufficient to warrant an exception to the normal operation of Green Belt policy. As such the proposal is contrary to policies GB1 and GB2 of the South Bucks District Local Plan (adopted March 1999) and section 13 (Protecting Green Belt Land) of the NPPF.

Refusal of Permission

Parish Comments to Appeal Process and Planning Inspectorate: –

Amendment written reps to original comments by 1st June 2020. As this is an appeal, we believe our previous comments as above are still valid.

This proposal constitutes inappropriate development within the Green Belt, which by definition is harmful. No very special circumstances have been demonstrated sufficient to warrant an exception to the normal operation of Green Belt policy. As such the proposal is contrary to policies GB1 and GB2 of the South Bucks District Local Plan (adopted March 1999) and section 13 (Protecting Green Belt Land) of the NPPF. 2.

26/10/2020 – Virtual Hearing Date 10am on 10 November 2020, anticipated to last two days.

27/10/2020 – Hearing deferred due to exceptional circumstances.

Appeals Allowed

PL/19/3143/FA                  Focus School Stoke Poges Campus, School Lane, Stoke Poges SL2 4QA

Erection of multi-purpose space and ancillary rooms, removal of existing modular classrooms, creation of a new footpath link with Khalsa Academy, creation of temporary construction access on School Lane and related landscaping, SUDS and other drainage works and associated works to 6 no. TPO trees.

Parish Comments:-  Object, Contrary to GB1

This proposal, if permitted would be likely to act as a precursor of further applications for similar types of development within this part of the Greenbelt, which the Planning Authority would find increasingly difficult to resist and which, which, cumulatively, would seriously prejudice the openness of the Greenbelt and the aims and objectives of Greenbelt policy.

Hereby Refuses Permission / Appeal received against refusal – Written Reps by 9 April 2021

Hearing to be held on 27 April 2021 at 10am for 1 day.
