Not over the line just yet
A plan for nearly 50 homes and changes to a former Pendle cotton mill site, which has an old engine house and chimney, have been deferred for further talks.
But some recent questions have been raised about potential flood risks to waterways in Earby, roads, the engine house and birds which maybe nesting at the site.At the area committee, Pendle's head of planning, Neil Watson. said: "The committee asked us to have discussions with the developer about what could be done with the engine hall and other matters, such as a roundabout. There are now some sketches showing two houses at the engine house.
A recent comment from the Environment Agency stated: "We are unable to withdraw our objection outlined in our letter in March as the flood risk assessment and model review show increase in risk to others up Victoria Clough culvert. To overcome our objection, the applicant should update their model which demonstrates that the development is safe for its lifetime without increasing flood risk elsewhere. Where possible, it should reduce flood risk overall.
Coun Whipp added: "To be fair to the developer, I think they have given quite a lot of thought to the environment. When the Environment Agency talk about the other site in Earby, I'm confused. "
