| 1. | The use and development undertaken to facilitate the use gives rise to a profound and material impact upon the character and openness of the Green Belt. The use of the site in the manner undertaken has a profound and urbanising effect on the character of the site far removed from its historic and any former uses in scale. The development cumulatively fails to comply with any of the relevant exceptions given in the NPPF even with regard given to the December 2024 revisions, specifically Paragraph 155 and is not regarded as Grey-Belt for the purposes of assessment. |
| 2. | The use and development undertaken to facilitate the use fails to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the North Ockendon Conservation Area, contrary to Section 72 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. The alterations to the site arising from the use including storage of vehicles, increased hard-standing and physical works to existing structures on site would furthermore be detrimental to the setting of the locally listed Whitepost Farmhouse thereby conflicting with Havering Local Plan 2016-2031 Policy 28 and the objectives of the NPPF. |
| 3. | The scale and intensity of the proposed use evidenced through the expansion of the site into previously undeveloped areas along with the number of vehicles and associated ancillary development would be detrimental to existing local character and thereby in conflict with Havering Local Plan 2016-2031 Policy 26 as well as the objectives of the Framework in particular Para 135 which requires development add to the overall quality of the area and be sympathetic to local character and history, including the surrounding built environment and landscape setting. |
| 4. | Statement Required by Article 35 (2) of the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) Order 2015: Consideration was given to seeking amendments, but given conflict with adopted planning policy, notification of intended refusal and the reason(s) for it was given to the agent in writing 05-12-2025. |
| 5. | The proposal, if granted planning permission on appeal, would be liable for the Mayor of London and Havering Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). Based upon the information supplied with the application, the Mayoral CIL payable would be 5550. based on the calculation of £25.00 per square metre.
Further details with regard to CIL are available from the Council's website. |
