Letter to Local Planning Authorities from an Entrepreneurial Farmer

1.1 presentment to myself and debate for marriage proposal.My name is MR Michael Christou and I live and work at Moatlow farm (GR 156 538). Farming in my argona is becoming increasingly difficult. This is due to ridiculous soil and the harsh climate. also I am receiving much slight income be take in of increase in cost of guardianship my live stock and the devolve in their value at market.1.2 Please insure the above lucubrate when reviewing my proposals. (The following)2.0 General explanation of my proposals (Of which there are three)2.1 Development of place buildings into holiday accommodation.Firstly I propose to make the appropriate alterations to some of my idle outbuildings. If I do so I allow for be competent to accommodate tourists wherecurtain call earning a little extra income to pay for the keeping of my animals and giving tourists a quality pose of the peak district area, which go forth bring more money into the area and company.2.2 Restriction of cert ain(a) peck paths during lambing season.My second proposal is that the creation footpaths which cut through my land are closed for the period of while when the lambs are at a give where if they are disturbed they are easily scared because this leads to them growing to be unhealthy. Although I curb that the general public has the right to be commensurate to experience this scenic and peaceful environment, but if they carry on sledding through my fields as regularly and in the great meter that they do then, especially during lambing season, my income and the role I pushover within the community pull up stakes be impaired.2.3 The replacement of change stone breakwaters with easier maintainable fencing.organism a hard working farmer I strive at seatting 100% into my work knowing the more time I put in the more I get out, but an sodding(a) problem of tourists damaging and myself having to repair or pay for damaged dry stone walls is becoming somewhat of a hindrance. Also t he more time I put into repairing the dry stone walls the less time I defy for real work this is why I suggest that the absolute majority of the walls are replaced by cheaper, easier to maintain fencing.3.0 Evidence and ideas to support my plan.3.1 Evidence and ideas concerning out building development.There are an extremely large number of auditors every year to Dovedale and the peak district area this is where the topical anaesthetic community gains its income to be able to support itself. It is inevitable that if an extra place for a family to plosive consonant is provided people go forth take that opportunity. If accommodation is provided for 2 or 3 families then it would be an extra 2 or 3 families in the topical anesthetic area which means non only I pull in much needed extra income but the whole community volition benefit. The simple reason being that those two or three families will be spending their in the shops, paying to use the facilities and paying to visit th e attractions in the area.3.2 Evidence and ideas concerning the closure of certain foot paths at certain times.Changing the routes during busy season is in favor of what the P.R officer is proposing and withal it would be a great benefit to my self.3.3 Evidence and ideas concerning the replacement of dry stone walls with easy maintenance fencing.People in opposition to this proposal would argue that the removal of the dry stone walls would be the removal of a natural beauty but the walls are not natural, man put them there. But that is not my point/argument just fact. I agree that the removal of all of the dry stone walling would be the removal of something which I believe symbolizes English coarseside, culture and heritage. But I am not asking that all the walls are removed/destroyed just the ones that pester my land and nearby farms.This would be barely noticeable to the general public but would make a significant difference to myself and my work. If the walls are go forth the re I will give to continue repairing them after visitors overhear damaged them which is either time consuming, expensive or both. If it is not practicable at any point for me to make a repair to the wall then holes form meaning my animals can escape easily consequently getting lost or injuring themselves costing me even more money.Also the lime stone can be utilize again for things such(prenominal) as repairing new(prenominal) walls, strengthening/repairing foot paths instead of scaring the scenery by digging for it. In laconic it is been re-cycled, beneficial to the local community.4.0 Justification of my proposals in comparison to those of the parish council and the public relations officer.4.1 Why the parish councils proposal will not benefit the community.(1) The car parks are to be made by the laying of tarmac. If this is to be done then extreme disturbance of the local area will occur, e.g. the heavy plant machinery will make such noise and will take up space there arc the area will have to be closed to visitors during construction other wise extreme disorder would occur. This closure to tourists, even for a short time would kill more or less of the communities peoples income.(11) The cost of visiting the area for most people is far from cheep then on top of that when visitors enter the parish council wants to charge them for parking their car. The tourists already provide a large percentage of our income to charge them for things such as parking would almost be exploiting them afterwards all they do have as much right to experience this environment as we do.4.2 Justification of my proposals contWhy the public relations officers proposals will not benefit the community(1) The proposal of putting information boards just about the area to help give visitors awareness of what they are doing to our area will benefit the area in no way what so ever. My reason for believing this is that I believe that the people who take out the time and show inte rest in these information boards saying Dont drop litter and the country code etc are the people who would have thought to respect our environment in the 1st place. Consequently the boards are a waste of money. (Money which is donated by the local community)(11) Making alternative footpaths out of hard wearing footpaths i.e. tarmac would have the same negative effect on the community as explained in section 4.1 (1).Whereas if you (the committee) were to accept my proposals the lime stone from the walls would be crushed and used to make hard wearing, natural looking footpaths.4.3 The afore mentioned proposals of the P.R officer and the parish council would both have a negative effect on the community and would just cause a great hassle.My proposals have been carefully planned to have a positive effect on the community, whilst making the role I play within the community more focused.5.0 In conclusionPlease consider all of the facts and think about how our community is going to benefit the most. I am confident that once you have done this you will go down that my proposals are going to have the most positive effect on the future development and future in general of our community, and there fore should be put into place.
