That the response
submitted (as set out in Appendix A of the report) to the recent Government
consultation on the proposed introduction of a new permitted development right
for small-scale, non-domestic wind turbines, be endorsed.
Reason for decision
The proposed new
permitted development right would streamline the planning process for
small-scale non-domestic wind turbines which met certain criteria.
The consultation
response set out in Appendix A supported the principle of the new proposed
permitted development right whilst also highlighting the importance of a full
assessment of impacts through a planning application for larger scale schemes.
