The proposal - known as The Lanes - would see 1,100 new homes built on land between Penwortham and Lostock Hall. southribblebc has twice rejected the scheme and a decision from the planning inspector drags on 🏠
The joint applicants appealed against that decision, leading to a three-week public inquiry last August, at which the issue of highways once again dominated the debate about the suitability of the plot for such a significant proposal.Ordinarily, the inspector chairing that hearing, Patrick Hanna would have made the final decision about whether or not to uphold the council’s refusal of planning permission or reverse it.
Mr Gove’s decision had been expected earlier this year, but a meeting of South Ribble Borough Council last week heard that it had now been put back until 18th September – or sometime shortly beforehand.
“The overwhelming view locally is that the planning inspector is clearly going to follow the decision of the planning committee, because it’s based upon absolutely sound planning legislation. “Our understanding of the situation is that because the inspector has supported our position on this, the government is looking – particularly with the highways issue – for a route through, for some bizarre reason, to try and approve these applications. That is just wholly undemocratic and unfair.
