Core Refusal Reason
The application was refused due to substandard documentation, traffic safety concerns on a regional road, inadequate wastewater treatment capacity, and potential adverse impacts on protected Natura 2000 sites.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The submitted drawings and traffic data are insufficient to assess the impact on the regional road and existing substandard junction.
- There is inadequate evidence to prove the existing wastewater treatment system can handle increased loading, posing a public health risk.
- The lack of an Appropriate Assessment (AA) Screening Report prevents the authority from ruling out negative impacts on the River Barrow and River Nore SAC.
