About this application
This is a planning application for signage at Multiplex Cinema Forum Way Cramlington Northumberland NE23 6UT. Northumberland (County) has handled 16,733 applications of this type. This one was decided in 71 days, 3 weeks longer than Northumberland (County)'s typical decision time. There has been 1 other application at this address. We hold 162 applications in total for the NE23 postcode area.
Why it was refused
- By virtue of its size, scale and illumination, the proposed advertisement would appear as a dominant and visually intrusive feature within the street scene, resulting in harm to the character and appearance of the area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies QOP 1 and QOP 2 of the Northumberland Local Plan and Policy DP3 of the NPPF.
- The proposed advertisement would be sited within adopted highway land where such advertisements are not permitted. Relocating the advertisement outside the highway would require a fundamental amendment to the proposal and red line boundary. The proposal is therefore contrary to the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007 and the NPPF.
From the council's decision notice.
