Sutton Lane Planning Application
Dear All

This has been sent for "non-determination by the Planning Inspectorate". This means it is totally out of the hands of the CDC Planning Committee and that no-one will be able to represent Sutton directly, other than our objections. I googled why this should have happened - it is for occasions where the application hasn't been decided by the local authorities within 8 weeks. Beware in case this is a new tactic for CDC planning department - ignore anything controversial and it will be referred to Central Government.
Fingers crossed that the Inspectorate will see sense as the last guy did.

This is appalling! What is the point of CDC Planning Department?

THOMPSON’S FIELD: brief notes from latest outline planning application for those who haven’t two hours to spare to read through the documents!


  • 32 houses minimum to be built on the higher ground to flood risk standards ie concrete floors, raised electric sockets etc

  • this is not land that floods – what about existing houses that are at flood risk?

  • lower part of the field is highlighted as flood risk and not suitable for houses so car park to be built next to existing road junction with Bridge Street

  • some of this land is also contaminated from having been used as a tip so not suitable for building

  • underground water storage tanks to be built under car park to store runoff water in times of heavy rain – rest of runoff to be diverted into beck

  • lots of maths data to predict that flood risk to village will be minimal and even that new build will reduce risk

  • mini roundabout to be constructed at junction of Holme Lane and Bridge Street to improve traffic flow

  • lots of maths data based on 2011 traffic flow to show that there will only be a few extra cars on local roads at peak times from new build (yet 23 houses = at least 32 cars surely)

  • suggestion that new residents will walk/catch buses (three per day) to Steeton Station!

  • closure of public footpath and green space alongside beck from Holme Lane and across Alvic Field (no mention of who will maintain it)


Please put in your objections to Craven District Council while there is still time!

And please don't forget Sutton Lane objections too. Appeal closes 14 December. Reasons for objecting are very similar to Thompson's Field.

The flood risk assessment has "Cravendale" throughout. Well done there!

can anyone a bit more familiar with these tell me if by "carparks" they mean drives?
