[QUOTE="betweenthelines, post: 6392074, member: 45282"] Simple. Economic viability, soil type and employment opportunities are not part of the planning approval criteria. Does it fit the Local and Regional Plan are the main criteria, followed a long way behind by visual impact, unless in an AONB. Any major developments usually involve the developer improving the (very) local roads. I was, at one time involved in opposing the development of the largest (at the time) open cast mine in Europe. The economic viability and the employment opportunities were not allowed to be considered at the Planning Inquiry. Permission was granted, nothing happened for 25 years as it wasn't viable due to the fall in mineral prices, then when it finally opened, the whole operation went into Administration within a couple of years,leaving the whole area (on the edge of a National Park) scarred. Planning has nothing to do with common sense. [/QUOTE]
