1.The proposed use of the land for markets and entertainment events during March to October represents an intensification of use resulting in a likely increase in traffic movements and a greater requirement for parking. The application has not been supported by sufficient highways and transport information to demonstrate that the proposed development will not be prejudicial to the satisfactory functioning of the highway network or highway safety. Accordingly the proposal is considered contrary to part C of policy CS16 of the adopted Core Strategy and criterion C of saved policy SHP13 of the Borough Wide Local Plan.
2.The change of use would represent an increase in people and activities undertaken within the site. These activities could give rise to a greater level of noise and disturbance and it is considered by the Local Planning Authority that the applicant has not provided sufficient information to demonstrate that the proposal would not have a significantly adverse impact on the amenities of the neighbours and accordingly is contrary to criterion B of saved policy SHP 13 of the Borough Wide Local Plan. Consequently the application has been refused as it does not conform with saved policy SHP13 of the Borough Wide Local Plan and policy CS16 of the adopted Core Strategy.
3.STATEMENT OF POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT: In accordance with the NPPF, in determining this application for planning permission, the Borough Council has approached it in a positive and proactive way and where possible has sought solutions to problems to achieve the aim of approving sustainable development. Unfortunately, despite this, in this particular case the development is not considered to represent sustainable or an acceptable form of development and has been refused for the reasons set out above.
