Temporary Slim Bars said:To me, the most important part is Section 4 of the councils submission Here
Basically, it states that the only way to build in an AONB is if ONE of these criteria is met:
The proposal conserves and enhances the visual and landscape quality and character of the AONB
OR
It can be demonstrated that the development is in the national interest and that there are no alternative sites available elsewhere.
It then goes on to state why these are BOTH met (the first being the councils view and the second being PRESCOTT'S).
So, the site can be completely detrimental to the environment if Ruth goes along with John.
OR Ruth can completely ignore John's view, but still give it the go ahead due to the lack of environmental impact.....
Sounds like a shoe-in to me.
We are all doomed I say . . . doomed.
