The Committee considered a
report from the Assistant Director for Waste,
Planning and Environment (item 6 in the minute book) regarding two
applications at Frith End Quarry in Bordon.
Councillor Kemp-Gee spoke as
the local Member against the application, questioning the need and
proposing that the County look to share reserves with surrounding
Counties to assist with supplies.
· During a previous flood at the quarry, 20,000 tonnes of sand was lost · The Liaison Panel last met in February 2021 where the potential applications were discussed
During questions of the officer, the following points were clarified:
· The County Landscape Architect was happy that the existing landscape and vegetation helped shield the site; · Restoration proposals had been approved and a 10yr aftercare plan was included as part of the applications. The proposals had been approved by Natural England and the County Ecology team; · Further work would be done in looking at the provision of aggregate and other Authorities; · Areas had been retained for bird nesting and nesting still continued on the site.
In debate, some Members did share concerns on the impact of the proposals on local wildlife, but on balance agreed there was no planning reason to refuse the applications.
RESOLVED
b) Planning permission was GRANTED for planning application 30633/040, subject to the conditions listed in Appendix B.
