In noting the detail of the application and the views expressed, it was proposed by County Councillor Jayne McKenna and seconded by County Councillor Rachel Buckler that consideration of application DM/2025/01039 be deferred to the next available Planning Committee meeting with reasons for refusal. It was considered that the car park was confined and the provision of a catering van on the site would take up already limited parking spaces leading to on-road parking to the detriment of highway safety, and would lead to a lack of space for safe manoeuvring within the park which was an area well-used by walkers and their pets, contrary to LDP Policy MV1.
Upon being put to the vote, the following votes were recorded:
For deferral - 9 Against deferral - 2 Abstentions - 1
The proposition was carried.
