Partial demolition of existing vacant building, change of use of remaining floorspace and erection of new single storey extension for mixed restaurant and hot food takeaway (mixed A3/A5) use, incorporating a 'drive-thru' lane, creation of new vehicular access and egress point from Hollow Lane, provision of car and cycle parking, plant and extraction system, landscaping at The Oast House, Hollow Lane Snodland.

 

RESOLVED:  That planning permission be REFUSED for the following reason(s):

As such, the proposed development is contrary to the requirements of paragraphs 127(a) and (f) 180 (a) of the NPPF.
