Objection to reference in Policy under section titled ‘Conservation Areas’ to the demolition of buildings and to the consideration by the Council of “the withdrawal of permitted development rights where they present a threat to the protection of the character and special interest of the conservation area”. ABP benefits from ‘permitted development’ rights over its ‘operational land’. Reliance on these rights is critical to the ability to fulfil its statutory duties. Strongly resist any steps to withdraw permitted development rights. If reference to withdrawal of permitted development rights does not encompass those enjoyed by ABP, specific clarification should be included.
