PROPOSALS to build a garage and access to Helton Close at the Old Vicarage, Barrowford, will be considered by Pendle development control committee tonight
A decision to grant the application was deferred at Barrowford and Western Parishes Committee.
Members believed the proposal would generate additional traffic in Helton Close and cause highway hazards.
This would lead to it being contary to Pendle Local Plan Policy 1 which requires that development provides for safe highway access.
It was also thought the proposal would result in a loss of residential amenity in Helton Close from additional traffic and reduction in the safety of kerbside parking space.
