S/2010/1285- Open Site Behind Antrobus Hotel, Kings Arms Inn and Lloyds Bank, Salisbury Street, Amesbury, Salisbury SP4 7AW Open Site Behind Antrobus Hotel, Kings Arms Inn and Lloyds Bank, Salisbury Street, Amesbury, Salisbury SP4 7AW Supporting documents: Minutes: Public participation:
Mr Antony Stocken spoke in support of the application.
The Planning Officer introduced the report, outlined the history of the site and drew member’s attention to some late correspondence. A debate ensued during which the following issues were raised:
· Concerns by the width of the vehicular access to the site. · Concerns regarding pedestrian access to the site · Number of car parking spaces
Resolved:
That the application be refused for the following reasons:
The proposed access to the application site by reason of its narrow width and junction with Salisbury Street is considered to be an inadequate form of access unsuitable for the amount of vehicles and pedestrians proposed to use it. Salisbury Street in Amesbury is the main shopping street for the town and is busy with both vehicular and pedestrian traffic during shop opening hours. There is potential for significant pedestrian and vehicular conflict at the proposed entranceway to the site where it meets the High street leading to a dangerous vehicular – pedestrian interface. As such it is considered that the proposal is contrary to policies G2(i), TR12(ii) and TR15 of the saved policies of the adopted Salisbury District Local plan.
Councillor Josie Green requested that her vote against the resolution be recorded. |
