| 1. | Policy NNV5 of the Modified Deposit Version of the Borough-Wide Local Plan
states that in the areas shown on the Proposals Map as 'Landscape Important
to the Coastal Scene' the Council will only permit development that would
not significantly detract from the essential open character of the areas.
Furthermore, Policy UDN7 of the Plan states that, in considering proposals
for new development in rural areas, the Council will require a high
standard of design.
The proposal would be contrary to the objectives of these policies in that
the fencing would, in view of its height, extent and, in particular, the
materials that have been specified for its construction, constitute a
visually discordant feature that would be detrimental to the rural scene
and the outlook from adjacent residential property. |
