The Parish Council has no objections to this application but they have grave concerns over the speed and volume of traffic, both during and after construction using Prison Drive.

The Council request an extension to the Maintenance period of the Prison approach road for an additional 25 years. (Currently it will divert to becoming 50% responsibility of residents of Onley Park in 5 years time, which is felt to be unfair based on the usage which is primarily attributed to the prison traffic).
To consider installation of speed calming measures to increase safety on the approach road.
Any damage to the prison drive to be made good following construction works.

DA/2020/0783

Land To Rear Of 25B Daventry Road, Barby, Northamptonshire

Construction of 4 dwellings and associated work (access from Balding Close)

Barby & Onley Parish Council is STRONGLY OPPOSED to this application for the following reasons:-

This development is considered to be overdevelopment of the site, as the four houses proposed have very little garden or area for parking and there are no turning points. This is contrary to Policy BO-H1(d) of the parish Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP)
Should this development go ahead, it will add to the 4 consented dwellings which have yet to be built, meaning that the Close will consist of 11 houses. NCC Transportation Design Guide for Residential Developments would not be met with regard to visibility requirements for both traffic and pedestrians, pathway provisions for pedestrians and minimum road widths required to adhere to access requirements for emergency and HGV vehicles.
The entrance into Balding Close off Daventry Road is bounded by a Grade 2 Listed wall, which will prevent a widening of the entrance splay.
The entrance is crossed by a pavement which is used daily as a route to the primary school.
There is already a surface water drainage problem down Daventry Road which will be exacerbated by building of additional dwellings. Contrary to Policy BO-D3 of Parish NDP.
The 4 houses proposed are adjacent to a Listed property “Stone Cottage” and would affect the setting and amenity of the listed property.
The design of the houses is contrary to Policy BO-D1 of Barby & Onley Parish NDP.

Should DDC be minded to grant this application, the Parish Council wish to see conditions limiting the hours of construction works to protect the amenity of current residents.

All objectors were asked to write directly to DDC planning Department stating their concerns.

Decision awaited from Daventry District Council.

DA/2020/0660

Penny Stamp Cottage 12, The Green, Barby, Northamptonshire, CV23 8TS

Barby & Onley Parish Council had no objections to this application.

DA/2020/0469

The Cavans, Barby Lane, Barby, Northamptonshire, CV23 8UX

Change of use of land to use as a residential gypsy caravan site comprising 5 pitches accommodating a total of 7 caravans, including no more than 5 static caravans/mobile homes, together with additional hardstanding and construction of ancillary amenity building.

Barby & Onley Parish Council OBJECT to this application since the Neighbourhood Development Plan Policy BO-H2 was drafted to prevent isolated development in open countryside. The policy was put in place to help protect the green space between the village and Rugby’s built up area.

Barby & Onley Parish Council object to this application as they feel it is over-development in the open countryside and contrary to Policy BO-H2 of their Neighbourhood Development Plan.

Although the Parish Council recognises that there is a shortage of Traveller and Gypsy sites within the District, the area already has a history of incremental development which has taken place without permission and has led to the countryside being defiled.

Because of this, the Parish Council would like this application to be discussed by the Planning Committee.

Should the District Council be minded to grant this application, then the Parish Council request that screening is put in place along the north and eastern boundaries of the site and that this application represents the maximum number of static caravans/mobile homes and touring caravans that may be permitted.

Concern was raised that the plans do not show the location of the Septic Tank, and no detail of the size of the proposed mobile homes is included in the application. The Parish Council would like confirmation that spacing between static caravans, and fire safety provision complies with current legislation.

Decision awaited from Daventry District Council

DA/2020/0576

DA/2020/0310

Land At Manor Works, Barby Lane, Barby, Northamptonshire

Outline planning permission for the erection of two industrial buildings (resubmission)

Since this site is an existing brownfield site, the Parish Council would not object to B1 Office business use as per Policy BOGP-1 of their Neighbourhood Development Plan, but they STRONGLY OBJECT to B2 Industrial, or B8 Warehousing use.
The Parish Council do not consider that there is any change in business need, and the document outlining business need submitted with the application is 3 years old and therefore felt to be too old to be used as justification for this application.
The state of the local highway infrastructure and road surfaces especially Onley lane, Barby Lane and Welton Road are in a very poor condition and would not be suitable for HGV use.
Congestion at pick up times at the Primary School is high, and HGVs travelling through the village would compromised the safety of children.
Additional HGV traffic would not be welcomed through the village and is contrary to the aims of Barby & Onley Neighbourhood Development Plan.
It was noted that walking to the site via Byway over Cart Hill is not a suitable form of access.
Should DDC be minded to grant permission, then the Parish Council would expect some s106 funding to mitigate damage to the local highway network.

Amended plans were discussed on 9th November:

The Parish Council OBJECT to B2 Industrial, or B8 Warehousing use.

Since the site now has two private residential properties adjacent to it, these will be adversely affected by being in close proximity to Industrial buildings.

Grave concerns were raised over any application which would lead to an increase in traffic at the site.

The state of the local highway infrastructure and road surfaces especially Onley lane, Barby Lane and Welton Road are in a very poor condition and would not be suitable for HGV use.

Congestion at pick up times at the Primary School is high, and HGVs travelling through the village would compromised the safety of children. Additional HGV traffic would not be welcomed through the village and is contrary to the aims of Barby & Onley Neighbourhood Development Plan.

It was noted that walking to the site via Byway over Cart Hill is not a suitable form of access to the village centre.

Should DDC be minded to grant permission, then the Parish Council would expect some funding to mitigate damage to the local highway network, and an assurance that any damage to the highway caused is repaired by the developers
