I object to this application as it is very clear that precedent is a valid reason for refusal of planning permission.
In a major determination (LGR 1975 211) the High Court Judge said: 'In all planning cases it must be of the greatest importance when considering a planning application to ask oneself what the consequences in the locality will be; what are the side-effects which will flow if such a permission is granted? Insofar as an application on site A is judged according to the consequence on site B, C and D, in my judgment no error of law is disclosed but only what is perhaps the most elementary principal of planning practice is being observed.'
Please reject this application as the consequences for Renhold would be dire if this development in open countryside were to be approved.
