Building to House a Material Recovery Facility (MRF)

off Merton St, Banbury (Application No 01/01030/OCC)

Report by Director of Environmental Services (PN8).

S Grundon Ltd has applied for planning permission to erect a building to house a material recovery facility at their existing depot off Merton Street, Banbury. The advantages of this site is that it is well located within the town centre near the source of household and commercial waste, thus reducing the distance materials would need to be transported. However, the proposal conflicts with the deposit draft Cherwell Local Plan which seeks to regenerate the area between the cattle market and the railway.

The Committee is RECOMMENDED that planning permission be refused for the development proposed in application no. 01/01030/OCC as it would severely prejudice the implementation of Draft Policy S5 of the deposit Cherwell Local Plan 2011 by consolidating industrial "bad neighbour" uses on the site; would have an adverse visual impact and may have an adverse noise and dust impact and would be incompatible with the proposed residential and mixed uses for this location.

1. Construction of Mounding Using Imported Inert Waste Material at Hinksey Heights Golf Course, Application No SHI/8759/42/CM

1. the Director of Environmental Services being authorised to negotiate as appropriate the terms of a charge (or other form of security) so as to secure the necessary funds to complete the required works in the absence of them being completed by the applicants;
2. conditions to be drawn up by the Director of Environmental Services to include:

1. complete compliance with plans and particulars
2. timescales for completion of works

10. removal of any contaminants
11. working hours
12. pollution prevention measures
13. no floodlighting
