Representation ID: 19986

Received: 30/04/2010

Respondent: Countryside Properties (Special Projects) Ltd

Agent: JB Planning Associates Ltd

Representation Summary:

It is important to ensure that the information required with any particular planning application is proportionate and relevant to the application being submitted. It is impractical as part of a major development scheme, and particularly one made in outline, to submit detailed lighting information. Unless there are significant lighting issues that need to be determined as part of the application itself, it should normally be sufficient to deal with lighting details by condition, and for major schemes to be accompanied by a lighting strategy rather than detailed lighting schemes.
