A public inquiry starts next week on Tuesday 28 January 2014, following an appeal by Redrow Homes (Midlands) against the development of land at the former Cattle Market, Alcester Road, Stratford-upon-Avon.
The appeal relates to a planning application for the proposed erection of 214 dwellings (Class C3) and 721 sq m of commercial floorspace (Classes A1, A2, A3, A4, A5), car parking, landscaping and all other ancillary and enabling works.
Stratford-on-Avon District Council has refused the application (13/00157/FUL) on 29 July 2013 on the following revised grounds:
Applying paragraph 14 of the National Planning Policy Framework, the adverse impacts of this proposal for 214 dwellings significantly and demonstrably outweigh its benefits for the following reasons:
The inquiry, expected to last between 5 to 7 days, will commence for the first two days (28 and 29 January) at Stratford-upon-Avon Town Hall, Sheep Street, Stratford-upon-Avon starting at 10am. Thereafter the Inquiry is scheduled to sit in the District Council offices at Elizabeth House, Church Street Stratford-upon-Avon on 30 and 31 January and 4 February but with two additional days provisionally set aside on 3 and 5 February if needed.
A Government Planning Inspector will preside over the inquiry.
Members of the public may attend the inquiry and express their view – at the discretion of the inspector.
