COUNCIL COMMITTEE ABOUT TO RULE ON BRIGG, SCAWBY & WRAWBY HOUSING SCHEMES


In addition to deciding a Brigg planning application to extend Cemetery Lodge on Wrawby Road and ruling on the conversion of Scawby Brook's King William IV pub into a dwelling with new properties built nearby, North Lincolnshire Council's Planning Committee will also consider proposed housing developments in Scawby and Wrawby during its meeting on Wednesday afternoon (March 24).
Outline planning permission for residential development is being sought for land to the rear of 36 Messingham Lane, Scawby - a site of approximately 2.05 hectares currently in arable use.
A report prepared for councillors to consider ahead of the meeting notes there has been an objection by Scawby Parish Council which says the proposed development lies outside the current development boundary for the village and is a greenfield site. 
Wednesday's 'virtual' online committee meeting will also rule on details relating to the erection of a single dwelling  - "access, appearance, landscaping, layout and scale" - on land adjacent to Whitegate Stables, Star Carr Lane, Wrawby, for which outline permission has already been granted. A detached two-storey dwelling with garage is proposed.
A report by council staff says there has been an objection by Wrawby Parish Council "on the grounds that the proposed house is large, overbearing and out of character with its surroundings."
Councillors from wards across the district will now rule on these Brigg, Wrawby and Scawby parish applications. Coun Nigel Sherwood (Brigg & Wolds) chairs North Lincolnshire Council's Planning Committee.
