IN THE MATTER OF NATIONAL HIGHWAYS A66 NORTHERN TRANS-PENNINE PROJECT DEVELOPMENT CONSENT ORDER APPLICATION AND IN THE MATTER OF LAND TO BE ACQUIRED PERMANENTLY AT BEACON FARM KEMPLAY BANK EAMONT BRIDGE PENRITH 1. Mr John and Mrs Virgilia Heath (the Representors) are the registered proprietors of (REDACTED) Penrith, Cumbria (Title Nos CU1922589, CU157787 and CU223895, part of which is proposed to be acquired under a Draft Development Consent Order (‘DCO’) being sought for the National Highways Northern Trans-Pennine Project (‘The Project’). 2. By reference to the Book of Reference Volume 1, The Land plans at 5.13, and the Environmental Statement 2.8 mitigations. The following plot numbers are being sought to be acquired permanently. Plot No. 0102-02-24 Plot No. 0102-02-25 Stated to be for highway works and landscape integration. 3. The Representors say that there have been wholly inadequate application consultations having regard to the planning history and the nature of the property described below. 4. The Representors do not object to the principal of the project but make the following representations in respect of their land affected by the scheme. 5. By reference 2.4 General Arrangements, Sheet 2, S0102-DR-CH-100001 the plot numbers 0102-02-24 and 0102-02-25 are required for the purposes of a “site compound”. It is assumed, therefore, that once construction of the road is complete, this land will not need to be permanently retained by National Highways. 6. If permanent acquisition of Plots 0102-02-24 and 0102-02-25 would not therefore be required, a temporary licence only should be taken with the land returned to the owners following completion of the project works. 7. The acquisition site together with adjoining land has previously had the benefit of outline planning permission No. 11/0446 (Eden District Council) for 22 affordable dwellings. The consent has lapsed but the land is to be subject to a further application and is currently subject to consultation with the Local Planning Authority (Eden District Council).
