Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the increase in the number of caravans on existing trees of landscape and ecological value and biodiversity
- The effect of the increase in the number of caravans on the living conditions of existing and future caravan occupiers
- The effect of the increase in the number of caravans on parking provision
What decided it
The proposed layout in the inset area, located adjacent to established housing and away from bat-sensitive southern boundary, would not adversely affect protected trees or bat populations, and would provide reasonable living conditions and parking, thereby justifying the increase to 139 caravans.
