Dog exercise field plan & 7 other new applications this week in Chorley and South Ribble
Plans have been submitted to create a new dog exercise field in Whitestake.
The owner of Moss View, 132 Chain House Lane, is seeking permisison from South Ribble Borough Council to change the use of a field at the back of the property to a ‘dog exercise field for limited use private hire’.
In a statement to the council, their agent says: “Limited hours of operation and limited numbers of people would be proposed. A small selection of dog exercise equipment would be provided to form an agility exercise area along with a secure fenced off large open area for general dog exercise. The site is not to be open to the general public.”
It is proposed to provide a new access gate in the existing hedgerow that defines the domestic curtilage (garden) from the open field to allow pedestrian access, there would be a new fence and post fence is proposed to separate a section of the filed between general exercise and agility training / exercise area. The applicant also proposes altering the existing driveway to allow additional off street parking and direct access to the field for the private hire.
Operating hours and ‘no noise impact assessment needed’
The planning statement shows that consultation with South Ribble Borough Council has already been taken, an advice given on hours and noise.
It says: “Following pre application email correspondence between Mr Chris Sowerby at South Ribble Planning, and Anthony Robertshaw at Dynamic Response (Noise and Vibration Consultants) it was agreed that the hours of operation will be limited to: Monday to Friday 8am – to 5pm Saturdays 9am – 1pm. Part of these email discussions was the agreement that no Noise impact assessment would not be required (sic) as the proposal was ging to be operating on restricted hours as noted above. The site will be limited to a maximum number of two vehicles for users of the field.”
A decision will be made in coming weeks by SRBC. Representations can be made the online portal.
