  • PL/2023/01755/PPFL Awaiting decision

    Meriden Quarry Cornets End Lane Meriden Solihull CV7 7LG

    Extension of existing permitted timescale for cessation of mineral extraction, infill and restoration operations by 10 years (until 27/9/2037) to allow renewed extraction of sand and gravel deposits in this area (Area A, north) and removal of the remaining existing woodland on the application site, followed by infill and restoration phases (Note: This effectively includes the variation of condition no. 2 attached to planning permission 97/0535 (Now PL/1997/00168/RM) (As extended by the 2012 ROMP up to September 2027); however, it appears inadequate to cover the scale of new extraction now proposed purely on the basis of varying a condition on a permission that is now somewhat out of date in terms of its original approved drawings, documents, and the wording of many of its conditions: see paragraphs 1.1 to 1.7 of the Minerals Development Statement for further discussion of this issue).
