Decision:

The residents Petition requested that a large part of the Country Supplies business, currently operating from Oakleaf Farm, be transferred to the Country Supplies Shana site at Walters Ash. The full text of the petition request is set out in the reports attached to this decision.
Buckinghamshire Council has no powers to force Country Supplies to make changes to its current legitimate business operations. Therefore the petition request cannot be supported by Buckinghamshire Council.

Reasons for the decision:

The Council’s role in relation to the resident’s petition is limited to the consideration of the highway and planning implications of the request.
Serious concerns were raised when reviewing this petition with traffic and planning implications. These implications are displacement of the problems experienced by residents and road users in Warrendene Road to the roads and local community in Walters Ash.

Alternative options considered:

Other options in which the lorry parking issue might be solved were reviewed by the North West Chilterns Community Board. These options are separate to the petition.

Wards Affected: Ridgeway East;
