Why it was refused

  1. Section 96A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) grants local planning authorities the power to make a change to any planning permission if they are satisfied that the change is not material. This includes the power to impose new conditions, or remove or alter existing conditions. In deciding whether a change is material, a local planning authority must have regard to the effect of the change, together with any previous changes made under Section 96A, on the planning permission as originally granted. Having considered the scale and nature of the changes proposed in the context of the wider approved development, they are considered to be material and as such would not fall within the scope of Section 96a of the Act. In particular, the plans include the existing mitigation measures which would alleviate both visual and noise impacts upon local residents. It is considered that the amendments comprise material changes to the approved development and in order to sufficiently consider the likely impacts upon residents and accord with Policy D3 of the Minerals and Waste Local Plan, consultation with relevant statutory consultees would also be necessary. Also, the addition of an access to be used by quarry traffic would introduce traffic movements not assessed as part of the existing planning permission and as such represent a material change in the operation of the quarry. The proposed amendment may consequently: • create new planning issues or exacerbate concerns raised at the original application stage; • introduce or exacerbate conflicts with planning policies; and • have a detrimental impact on neighbouring properties or land users or require re-consultation with neighbours, statutory bodies, or third parties. A Section 73 application is required for the changes proposed.

From the council's decision notice.
