Proposed Revocation of Planning Permission DM/2020/00817. Land at Severn Tunnel Junction, Station Road, Caldicot for Station Car Park on Land South of Severn Tunnel Junction pdf icon PDF 196 KB

Minutes:

We considered the report of the application in which approval was sought to enable the Council, as the relevant Planning Authority, to make an order to revoke planning permission DM/2020/00817 for Station Car Park at Land South of Severn Tunnel Junction.

 

The application had been submitted to the Local Planning Authority on 24th June 2020 and made valid on the 3rd July 2020. The application had been subsequently registered and the appropriate consultation exercise had been carried out. The application had been presented to the Delegated Panel for consideration on 27th October 2021 with an officer recommendation for approval. The Delegated Panel subsequently agreed with the officer recommendation and the application was approved on the 28th October 2021 subject to conditions.

 

Following the issuing of the decision it had become apparent that the application had been incorrectly presented to the Delegated Panel. In line with the Council’s Constitution the application was required to be presented to Planning Committee for resolution given the Council was the applicant and there were material planning objections to the proposals.

 

Approval was therefore sought to serve a Revocation Order to legally revoke the decision. 

 

Having considered the report of the application it was proposed by County Councillor G. Howard and seconded by County Councillor M. Feakins that a revocation order be made under Section 97 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 to revoke planning application DM/2020/00817 and that the application be presented and fully considered at a future Planning Committee meeting for determination.

 

Upon being put to the vote, the following votes were recorded:

 

In favour of revocation        -           7

Against Revocation             -           0

Abstentions                           -           0

 

The proposition was carried.

 

We resolved that a revocation order be made under Section 97 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 to revoke planning application DM/2020/00817 and that the application be presented and fully considered at a future Planning Committee meeting for determination.

 

It was noted that a site inspection would be held before the application is presented to a future Planning Committee meeting.
