Planning committee

Decided by Charnwood Plans Committee on 23 Jul 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.

Approved

As officers recommended.

  • Officers advised approval because the design, biodiversity, highway, amenity and countryside impacts were considered acceptable, subject to obligations and conditions.
  • The parish council objected because the dwelling was outside settlement limits and might set a precedent; one local resident supported it.
  • The committee granted permission subject to a section 106 obligation and the planning conditions and reasons in the report.
