   Received by East Suffolk

   Decision issued: Application Refused

   Added to PlanIndex

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

  Stonehouse Farm Thorington Road Thorington Saxmundham Suffolk IP17 3RB

  Prior Notification (Agricultural) - The two farms related to the track (walnut Tree Farm and Stonehouse Farm) are connected through ownership. The improvements of the tracks is essential for improving the efficiency of farm operations. The tracks will ensure a year-round access for farm machinery, which will enable better timeliness and ease of use for jobs which require mechanical assistance. This also extends the operational window, which allows contractors to work in more favourable conditions. Due to the very rural location of the site, there are no local roads which could serve the same purpose.
