Policy CG1 (Colne Valley Park)
Proposals for development within the countryside or other open areas in the Colne Valley Park will not be permitted unless they:
- maintain and enhance the landscape and waterscape of the park in terms of its scenic and conservation value and its overall amenity;
- resist urbanisation of existing areas of countryside;
- conserve the nature conservation resources of the park; and
- provide opportunities for countryside recreation which do not compromise the above.
Where development is permitted in these areas, measures to mitigate any visual impact and/or to enhance nature conservation and/or provision of new or improved access to the countryside will be sought by agreement and/or required by condition.
Where development is permitted within the built up area of the Colne Valley Park, which would have a significant visual impact on the Park, appropriate mitigation measures to realise the aims and objectives of the Colne Valley Strategy will be sought by agreement and/or required by conditions.
