PERMISSION Delegated Decision Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 No: 22/00913/FUL Date: 9 November 2022 To: Mrs Patricia Cournane c/o Mr Darren Beresford Architectural Services 237 Baldridgeburn Dunfermline KY12 9EG With reference to your application dated 27 July 2022 for planning permission under the above Act for the following development: Proposal: Conversion of stable complex for use as dog day care and shop Address: 230 Mosshall Street, Newarthill, Motherwell, North Lanarkshire, ML1 5LH, North Lanarkshire Council, in exercise of its powers under the above Act, hereby REFUSES planning permission for the reasons indicated in the paper apart. The council’s reasoning for arriving at the above decision is as follows:- Reasoned Justification The proposed development fails to meet the criteria set out in the relevant policies contained within the North Lanarkshire Local Development Plan. The proposed uses do not comply with acceptable development types within the Green Belt. There are no other special circumstances, material considerations or justification that suggest that the development plan should not prevail. Lorna Bowden Planning And Place Manager

Paper apart Reasons 1 That the proposed development is unacceptable against local plan policy PP4 as it does not represent uses that fall within the category of acceptable development types in the Green Belt. It specifically is contrary to policy PP4 in that it is not compatible with the Green Belt, it is better suited to being located in a Centre or General Urban Area, and in that there is no specific locational requirement .
