Decisions of NDDC Planning Committee None received

Arising from the above minutes. The Chairman reported that Mrs D Gibbs had contacted him with regard to her objections to the application for the Flour Silo at Dorset Village Bakery. The Chairman advised her to contact D Cllr G Carr-Jones and raise the three points regarding Landscaping, reduction of noise level to below 85 db and the possibility of using a horizontal silo rather than vertical one. The Chairman felt that provided these three points can be dealt with satisfactorily then the application does not need to go before the full Committee..

Other planning business

J Wardell reported that she had walked FP 25 part of which is on the land for which an application to create a nature reserve has been granted, She was concerned to note that a large bank of earth has been placed alongside the footpath which badly affects the view. Having checked the plans, the position of this bank has been changed. She spoke to the landowner, Mr Squires who advised that the bank is permanent and that he had been told to put it in this position. It was agreed to write to the Enforcement Officer and ask him to visit the site as this bank badly affects the amenity value of the footpath and to advise why the position of the bank had been changed.
