Why it was refused

  1. The proposed amendments would result in a change to the operative part of the original planning permission, failing to accurately reflect the original description of development originally granted under application ref.18/1039. The proposed amendments therefore fall outside of the scope of Section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended), and the Local Planning Authority is unable to grant planning permission on this basis.
  2. In the absence of sufficient evidence, the application has failed to demonstrate that the development would not give rise to harm to protected species and the Local Planning Authority is unable to discharge its legal duty and satisfy itself that a grant of planning permission would not be in conflict with the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended), Policy CP14 of the Surrey Heath Core Strategy and Development Management Policies 2012 and the National Planning Policy Framework.
  3. In the absence of a payment or completed legal agreement under section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended), the applicant has failed to comply with Policy CP14(B) (vi) (European Sites) of the Surrey Heath Core Strategy and Development Management Policies 2012, policy E1 of the emerging Local Plan 2019-2038, Policy NRM6 (Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area) of the South East Plan and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended) in relation to the provision of contribution towards Strategic Access Management and Monitoring (SAMM) measures in accordance with the Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area Avoidance Strategy Supplementary Planning Document (2019).
